Ovarian cancer is the most aggressive gynecologic malignancy, with a 5-year survival rate ranging around 40%. A crucial factor influencing the prognosis is early detection of a suspicious mass and referral to a gynecologic oncology center for further diagnosis, staging and debulking surgery. Here, we present the different imaging methods ultrasound (US), magnetic resonance imaging, computer tomography (CT) and 18F-fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET)/CT that are used for the characterization, diagnosis, staging and surveillance of ovarian cancer. In this review, we focus on US and discuss in detail the advantages and the limitations, as well as the appropriate indications for each of the individual imaging techniques.
卵巢癌是最具侵袭性的妇科恶性肿瘤，5 年生存率约为 40%。影响预后的一个关键因素是早期发现可疑肿块，并转至妇科肿瘤中心进一步诊断、分期和肿瘤细胞减灭术。本文介绍了不同的影像学方法，包括超声（US）、磁共振成像（MRI）、计算机断层扫描（CT）和 18F-氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描（PET）/CT，用于卵巢癌的特征描述、诊断、分期和监测。在本篇综述中，我们重点介绍了 US，并详细讨论了其优势和局限性，以及每种影像学技术的适用指征。
