[Imagerie dans les cancers de l'ovaire]

IMAGING OF OVARIAN CANCERS Imaging of ovarian lesions is based on the triptych: pelvic ultrasound with Doppler, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT). Endovaginal pelvic ultrasound is the first-line examination; tools are available to help with its interpretation (IOTA group rules, O-RADS US classification). When an ovarian mass is detected on ultrasound and if its characterization is «undetermined» or complex, MRI with perfusion sequences is used to clarify the criteria. Finally, a thoraco- abdominopelvic CT scan is necessary for extension assessment in the case of ovarian cancer, in particular to look for peritoneal carcinosis and to anticipate surgical difficulties.
