The aim of this article is to provide a modern view on the possibilities of radiological imaging modalities in preoperative assessment of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) and disease staging, and its critical role in determining treatment decision in malignant neoplasms (MN) of the abdominal cavity and pelvis. Cross-sectional imaging modalities plays an important role in disease staging of many different types of cancer as well as in detecting, characterizing and quantification of peritoneal deposits. Among imaging modalities, computed tomography (CT) is widely available, fast and commonly used for evaluation of peritoneal metastases. However, depending on primary tumor localization and histology the accurate assessment of distant metastases may require the use of a combination of two or more imaging methods, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography (PET/CT). Each imaging procedure has advantages and disadvantages, and particular imaging techniques are recommended based on patient conditions. The purpose of this review is to report the main role of imaging in the diagnosis of PC, limitations and typical radiological findings in the most common MN accompanied by spread of cancer cells to the peritoneum.
