Brief Summary: RATIONALE Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells Internal radiation uses radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor to kill tumor cells Giving radiation therapy in different ways may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE This phase II trial is studying how well giving external-beam radiation together with internal radiation works in treating patients with cervical cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the feasibility of magnetic resonance-guided endocavitary high-dose rate brachytherapy implants in patients with stage IB-IVB cervical cancer
Provide more reliable dose-volume estimations based on three-dimensional imaging-based treatment planning in patients treated with this regimen

Secondary

Determine the toxic effects and treatment tolerance in patients treated with this regimen
Correlate three-dimensional dose-volume histograms of organs at risk with treatment toxicity in patients treated with this regimen
Determine the disease status time and patterns of relapse and survival of patients treated with this regimen

OUTLINE Patients undergo external beam radiotherapy 4-5 days a week for up to 7 weeks Patients also undergo MRI-guided high-dose brachytherapy comprising one brachytherapy implant a week for 3-6 implants Brachytherapy may be administered during or after external beam radiotherapy

After completion of study treatment patients are followed periodically for 5 years

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 20 patients will be accrued for this study
