Abstract:Objectives We aimed to develop a model predicting complete cytoreduction in primary cytoreductive surgery (CRS) using clinicopathologic characteristics and 18 F-FDG PET/CT (PET)derived parameters in advanced OC.

We divided abdominal cavity into three sections in PET images. The number of lesions in… Show more
