The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of integrated ¹⁸F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (¹⁸F-FDG-PET/CT) for suspected recurrence of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) with non-disseminated lesions. ⋯ Compared with CECT, ¹⁸F-FDG-PET/CT shows higher sensitivity in lesion-based analysis and better accuracy of patient selection for secondary cytoreduction. However, there is still a need for integration of the results of ¹⁸F-FDG-PET/CT, CECT, and CA-125 levels to aid treatment planning.
