S M Kim, H J Park, C H Kim, H S Choi
Abstract
Because of the lack of early and specific symptoms, ovarian cancer has spread beyond the ovaries in 70 ~90% of the cases when detected. And despite progress in chemotherapy and surgery, about 60% of those affected usually die because of their advanced disease. These days, many attempts to improve survival and decrease the number of deaths from ovarian cancer have focused on early detection by use of transvaginal color Doppler sonography. The aim of this study was to know whether we can distinguish benign from malignant ovarian tumors according to morphology and blood flow characteristics using transvaginal color Doppler sonography.
Key Words: Transvaginal color Doppler sonography, Ovarian tumor, Morphological scoring system, Resistance and pulsatility index
