Ovary Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
To evaluate if CT features at diagnosis in patients with HGSOC can be used to build an Artificial Intelligence model capable of discerning the pathological involvement of the mesentery, assessing the potential impediments for an optimal debulking surgery and predicting the development of resistance to platinum based chemotherapeutic agents.
Interventions
Computed Tomography done according to Clinical Practice to assess mesenteric involvment
Sponsors
Study design
