Morphological imaging descriptions boost accuracy in peritoneal malignancy diagnosis

The study identified a high correlation between specific morphological appearances of peritoneal malignancies on imaging and their pathological outcomes. In a cohort of 630 patients, scalloping had a positive pathological incidence of 93.5%, followed by confluent disease at 78.8%, and tumor nodules at 69.6%. The results advocate for routine inclusion of standardized morphological descriptions in radiology reports to enhance diagnostic precision, promoting a consensus among radiologists for improvement.
