Adnexal Masses: Characterization of Benign Adnexal Masses

285

 

 

Conclusion

If ultrasonography remains the first-line ­investigation, pelvic MR imaging allows to optimize complex or indeterminate adnexal masses characterization (Fig. 6). In a two step analysis, pelvic MR imaging allows to provide a risk of malignancy to the clinician independently of the reader experience by using a MRI score and may also suggest a histopathological diagnosis if the reader has a higher expertise. As six patterns are defined at ultrasonography, the same six patterns may be defined at MR imaging. However, MR imaging will sometimes correctly reclassify some lesions misdiagnosed at ultrasonography, as echoic structures do not always correspond to solid tissue.
