Abstract
New treatment developments in ovarian cancer have led to a renewed interest in staging advanced ovarian cancer. The treatment of females with ovarian cancer patients has a strong multidisciplinary character with an essential role for the radiologist. This review aims to provide an overview of the current position of CT, positron emission tomography-CT, and MRI in ovarian cancer and how imaging can be used to guide multidisciplinary team discussions.
