Summary

The importance of selecting patients with ovarian cancer who will benefit from either primary debulking surgery or neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery has been acknowledged worldwide but the optimal diagnostic modality to serve in this matter remains to be discovered. We believe that combined magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography (MR-PET) can be of great clinical value in preoperative staging of patients with ovarian cancer.

Conditions

  • Ovarian Neoplasms

Interventions

RADIATION

MR-PET

The MR-PET will be performed with the Biograph mMR system (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany). This system integrates a 3Tesla MRI and PET scan which makes simultaneous acquisition of whole-body MRI and PET images possible. The Biograph mMR holds the CE mark and was FDA approved in June 2011. The Biograph mMR is intended to be used in the Academical hospita! Maastricht for standard patient care. The radiotracer that will be used is 18F-Iabeled fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG), according to standard PET -protocol.
