PURPOSE: The existing medical imaging tools have a detection accuracy of 97% for peritoneal metastasis(PM) bigger than 0.5 cm, but only 29% for that smaller than 0.5 cm, the early detection of PM is still a difficult problem. This study is aiming at ...
High-grade extrauterine serous carcinoma (HGSC) is an aggressive tumor with high rates of recurrence, frequent chemotherapy resistance, and overall 5-year survival of less than 50%. Beyond determining and confirming the diagnosis itself, pathologist ...
IMPORTANCE: Occult peritoneal metastasis frequently occurs in patients with advanced gastric cancer and is poorly diagnosed with currently available tools. Because the presence of peritoneal metastasis precludes the possibility of curative surgery, t...

PURPOSE: The gold standard for colorectal cancer metastases detection in the peritoneum is histological evaluation of a removed tissue sample. For feedback during interventions, real-time in vivo imaging with confocal laser microscopy has been propos...
BACKGROUND: Approximately 20% of initially eligible patients in a HIPEC procedure eventually underwent a simple surgical exploration. These procedures are called 'open & close' (O & C) representing up to 48% of surgery. The objective of this study wa...
BACKGROUND: Peritoneal lesions are common findings during operative abdominal cancer staging. The decision to perform biopsy is made subjectively by the surgeon, a practice the authors hypothesized to be imprecise. This study aimed to describe optica...
BACKGROUND: Mesenteric lymphatic malformations (MLs) are a heterogeneous group of benign diseases of the lymphatic system that present with cystic dilated lymphatics of the mesentery. MLs are rare and represent less than 5% of all lymphatic malformat...
PURPOSE: Diagnosis of peritoneal invasion, lymph node metastasis, and hepatic metastasis is crucial in the decision-making process of ovarian tumor treatment. This study aimed to test the feasibility of low-dose abdominopelvic CT with an artificial i...
