CT, MRI and PET imaging in peritoneal malignancy
TLDR
In this article, the authors reviewed established and new techniques in CT, MRI and PET imaging in both primary and secondary peritoneal malignancies and provided an overview of peritoneality anatomy, function and modes of disease dissemination with illustration of common sites and imaging features of Peritoneal Malignancy.Abstract:
Imaging plays a vital role in the evaluation of patients with suspected or proven peritoneal malignancy. Nevertheless, despite significant advances in imaging technology and protocols, assessment of peritoneal pathology remains challenging. The combination of complex peritoneal anatomy, an extensive surface area that may host tumour deposits and the considerable overlap of imaging appearances of various peritoneal diseases often makes interpretation difficult. Contrast-enhanced multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) remains the most versatile tool in the imaging of peritoneal malignancy. However, conventional and emerging magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET)/CT techniques offer significant advantages over MDCT in detection and surveillance. This article reviews established and new techniques in CT, MRI and PET imaging in both primary and secondary peritoneal malignancies and provides an overview of peritoneal anatomy, function and modes of disease dissemination with illustration of common sites and imaging features of peritoneal malignancy.read more

Disseminated peritoneal adenomucinosis and peritoneal mucinous carcinomatosis. A clinicopathologic analysis of 109 cases with emphasis on distinguishing pathologic features, site of origin, prognosis, and relationship to "pseudomyxoma peritonei".

TL;DR: The term DPAM should be used to diagnose the histologically benign peritoneal lesions associated with ruptured appendiceal mucinous adenomas and those that are pathologically identical but lack a demonstrable appendicesal adenoma, which should be designated PMCA because they have recognizably different pathologic features and a significantly worse prognosis.

FDG PET/CT of Extranodal Involvement in Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and Hodgkin Disease
TL;DR: Certain PET/CT patterns are suggestive of extranodal disease and can help differentiate tumor from normal physiologic FDG activity, particularly in the mucosal tissues, bone marrow, and organs of the gastrointestinal tract.
