• Peritoneal cancer index using 18F-FDG-PET/CT (PET-PCI) has great potential for predicting progression-free survival in patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei. • PET-PCI provides higher prognostic performance than maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax). • PET-PCI shows high correlation with histopathologic grade of pseudomyxoma peritonei.
