Incidental findings on female pelvic MRI present diagnostic challenges and may have significant clinical implications. Defined as abnormalities unrelated to the primary imaging indication, these findings have become increasingly prevalent w…

ObjectiveTo provide up-to-date European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) guidelines for staging and follow-up of patients with ovarian cancer (OC).MethodsTwenty-one experts, members of the female pelvis imaging ESUR subcommittee from …

Percutaneous image-guided ablation techniques are a consolidated therapeutic alternative for patients with high preoperative surgical risk for the management of oncological diseases in multiple body districts. Each technique has both pros a…

ObjectivesWhile magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is considered the gold standard for the imaging of female pelvis, there is an ongoing debate about the most appropriate indications and optimal imaging protocols. The European Society of Urog…

MRI was recently included as a standard pre-operative diagnostic tool for patients with endometrial cancer. MR findings allow a better risk assessment and ultimately guides the surgical planning. Therefore, it is vital that the radiological…

ObjectiveTo determine the accuracy of interpretation of a non-contrast MRI protocol in characterizing adnexal masses.Methods and materialsTwo hundred ninety-one patients (350 adnexal masses) who underwent gynecological MRI at our institutio…

Pelvic masses can present a diagnostic challenge owing to the difficulty in assessing their origin and the overlap in imaging features. The majority of pelvic tumors arise from gastrointestinal or genitourinary organs, with less common site…

Historically, cancer treatment has emphasized measures for the "cure" regardless of the long-term consequences. Advances in cancer detection and treatment have resulted in improved outcomes bringing to the fore various quality of life consi…

PurposeTo assess the utility of morphologic and quantitative CT features in differentiating abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) from other masses of the abdominal wall.MethodsRetrospective IRB-approved study of 105 consecutive women from two…

Characteristic histopathologic features have been described in high-grade serous carcinoma associated with BRCA abnormalities (HGSC-BRCA), which are known to have relatively favorable clinical outcomes. The aim of this study was to evaluate…

UnlabelledThe elevation of cancer antigen 125 (CA125) levels in the serum of asymptomatic patients precedes the radiologic detection of high-grade serous ovarian cancer by at least 2 mo and the final clinical diagnosis by 5 mo. PET imaging …

PurposeTo determine if second-opinion review of gynaecologic oncologic (GynOnc) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) by sub-specialized radiologists impacts patient care.Methods469 second-opinion MRI interpretations rendered by GynOnc radiologi…

PurposeTo investigate magnetic resonance (MR) volumetry of endometrial tumors and its association with deep myometrial invasion, tumor grade, and lymphovascular invasion and to assess the value of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) histog…

ObjectiveThe role of imaging in patients with suspected gynecologic malignancies is to provide an accurate diagnosis to achieve the best and most tailored treatment plan. Uncommon cancers pose a distinct challenge, because current knowledge…

Cystic disease in the female pelvis is common. The majority of cystic pelvic masses originate in the ovary, and they can range from simple, functional cysts to malignant ovarian tumors. Mimics of ovarian cystic masses include peritoneal inc…

AimTo assess the added value of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) in predicting advanced stage disease in patients with endometrial carcinoma.Materials and methodsFifty patients with endometrial carcinoma underw…
