Multimodality fusion imaging refers to the simultaneous visualization of spatially aligned and juxtaposed medical images obtained by two or more image modalities. PET/MRI scanners and MMFI platforms are able to improve the diagnostic workflow in oncologic patients and provide exquisite images that aid physicians in the molecular profiling and characterization of tissues. Advanced navigation platforms involving real-time ultrasound are promising tools for guiding personalized and tailored mini-invasive interventional procedures on technically challenging targets. The main objective of the present essay was to describe the current applications and future perspectives of multimodality fusion imaging for both diagnostic and interventional purposes in the field of abdominal and pelvic malignancies. We also outlined the technical differences between fusion imaging achieved by means of simultaneous bimodal acquisition (i.e., integrated PET/MRI scanners), retrospective co-registration, and multimodality fusion imaging involving ultrafast or real-time imaging modalities.
