Abstract：Ovarian cancer is the most deadly malignant tumor of the female reproductive system,prompt treatment can successfully slow the tumor's growth and increase patient survival.Ultrasound has demonstrated significant benefits in the assessment of chemotherapy for ovarian cancer because of its low cost,lack of radiation and real-time dynamics.The combination of multimodal ultrasound technology updates the deficiencies of traditional ultrasonography and provides a more precise quantitative assessment of chemotherapy efficacy.In order to assess the efficacy of chemotherapy for ovarian cancer,this review provides a review of the mechanism,diagnostic foundation,and application value of color doppler ultrasound,ultrasound elastography,ultrasound microvascular imaging,contrast-enhanced ultrasound,and ultrasound in conjunction with artificial intelligence,and gives a thorough understanding of the advancements being made in multimodal ultrasound technology research.It also gives an introduction of the possible applications of artificial intelligence in other areas of ultrasound,in order to boost prognosis,increase the accuracy of efficacy assessment,and offer a foundation for choosing and modifying chemotherapy protocol.
