Abstract:
The ultrasound examination is most widely used for differential diagnosis of benign and malignant ovarian lesions. The multiparametric approach, which involves the complete modes’ using of the ultrasonic equipment in a logical order, including elastography, allows us to determine the nature of the ovarian tumor masses with high confidence. With this approach, 45 patients with different ovarian masses were examined. In 42 women (93.33%), the pathomorphological diagnosis was compared with the data of a multi-parametric ultrasound study, which clearly demonstrates the sensitivity and specificity of the technique before conventional grey-scale ultrasound examination.
