Journal Title: Journal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 29
Abstract
Of all the gynecological cancers, ovarian malignancies represent the greatest clinical challenge. The value of tumor marker and ultrasonography to screen for epithelial ovarian cancers has not been clear established by prospective studies. In present study the relative value, predictive value and differentiate between benign and malignant ovarian tumors of B mode ultrasonography alone and in combination with colour differentiating benign from malignant ovarian neoplasms and to correlate the imaging findings with histopathological findings. The present study established a multi – fold increase in the specificity and positive predictive value in establishing the pre-operative diagnosis of ovarian masses, especially in terms of benignity and malignancy, when using B-mode ultrasonography in combination with colour and spectral Doppler as compared to B-mode ultrasound alone
