Whole-body diffusion-weighted MRI versus CT for detection, restaging and operability assessment of recurrent ovarian carcinoma
2014
Methods Fifty-one women suspected for recurrent ovarian cancer underwent 3-Tesla WB-DWI/MRI using 2 b-values (b=0-1000 s/mm2), T2and contrast T1-weighted sequences in addition to CT. WB-DWI/MRI and CT were compared for per-patient detection of recurrence, per-site detection of disease extent including peritoneal, serosal, retroperitoneal, periportal and distant metastases and for detecting disease extent according to institutional operability criteria. Imaging findings were correlated with surgical/pathological findings or imaging follow-up for at least 6 months.
