To assess ultrasonographic features of adnexal endometriomas in relation to patient age in premenopausal patients. Retrospective cross-sectional analysis of 5914 adnexal masses from the International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA) study. All…
BACKGROUND: To compare different ultrasound-based international ovarian tumour analysis (IOTA) strategies and risk of malignancy index (RMI) for ovarian cancer diagnosis using a meta-analysis approach of centre-specific data from IOTA3. ME…
The extent of the staging surgery in cases of histologically proven endometrial cancer depends on whether the tumor is of high risk or low risk for extrauterine spread and recurrence. There are several significant prognostic factors - histo…
Borderline ovarian tumors represent a heterogeneous group of noninvasive tumors of uncertain malignant potential with characteristic histology. They occur in younger women, are present at an early stage, and have a favorable prognosis, but …
OBJECTIVES: To describe the ultrasound characteristics of endometriomas in pre- and postmenopausal patients and to develop rules that characterize endometriomas. METHODS: All patients included in the International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (I…
AIM: To evaluate the performance of subjective evaluation of ultrasound findings (pattern recognition) to discriminate endometriomas from other types of adnexal masses and to compare the demographic and ultrasound characteristics of the tru…
Acoustic streaming is the movement of fluid in a cyst due to energy transfer from the US wave. A previous study reported that absence of acoustic streaming could be a typical characteristic of an endometrioma (Eoma). The aim is to examine w…
