Summary

MRI is a potentially powerful tool to reliably determine the intra-abdominal tumor load and relations with intra-abdominal organs. In recent years diffusion weighted MRI has proven its value as a highly sensitive technique to detect small malignant disease in a wide variety of cancers \[1-3\]. However, literature concerning the clinical impact of detecting peritoneal metastases with MRI is very limited. Therefore, there is a need for a large randomized multicenter trial to determine whether dedicated MRI can be used as a selection tool for CRS-HIPEC candidates in daily practice.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

DWI MRI of the pelvis, abdomen and thorax

Patients in Arm A will receive a MRI scan of their pelvis, abdomen, and thorax before possible surgery. During the MRI standard Gadolinium contrast agent and Buscopan is intravenously administered, which is standard clinical practice in abdominal MR imaging. Total scan time is 35 minutes and includes T2 weighted, T1 weighted, Diffusion weighted and dynamic contrast enhanced imaging of the abdomen and the thorax. The findings of this scan will be used to determine whether to proceed with CRS/HIPEC, DLS and then possibly CRS-HIPEC, or palliative care.
