Abstract

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) represents the most frequently occurring gynecological malignancy, accounting for more than 70% of ovarian cancer deaths. Preoperative imaging plays an important role in assessing the extent of disease and guides the next step in surgical decision-making and operative planning. In this article, we will review the multimodality imaging features of various subtypes of EOC. We will also discuss the role of imaging in the staging, management, and surveillance of EOC.

Keywords: Endometrioid carcinoma; Epithelial ovarian cancer; High-grade serous ovarian cancer; Low-grade serous ovarian cancer; Magnetic resonance imaging; Ovarian neoplasms.
