Abstract：Ovarian cancer is the most lethal malignancy in the female reproductive system.Imaging examina-tions are essential to the diagnosis and management of ovarian cancer,including ultrasound,computed to-mography(CT),magnetic resonance imaging(MRI),and positron emission tomography(PET).This article offers a comprehensive review of the application and value of various imaging techniques in the diagnosis and treatment of ovarian cancer.Ultrasonic examination is the preferred imaging examination for screening and diagnosis of ovarian cancer,CT is the most commonly used imaging examination for diagnosis,treatment,and prognosis monitoring of ovarian cancer,and MRI can improve the diagnostic efficiency of ovarian cancer.PET is not suitable for the diagnosis of ovarian cancer,but it has high value in assisting staging,evaluating treatment efficacy,and other aspects.
