About this trial

This prospective study aims to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in characterizing adnexal cystic lesions and differentiating benign from malignant lesions. MRI findings will be correlated with histopathology, surgical data, laboratory results, or follow-up imaging when surgery is not performed, to improve diagnostic confidence and guide appropriate patient management.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Female patients of any age with adnexal cystic lesions detected by ultrasound

Adnexal lesions that are indeterminate or suspicious on ultrasound

Patients who provide written and oral informed consent

Disqualifiers

Patients unwilling to participate or complete the study

Contraindications to MRI, including claustrophobia, metallic implants, pacemaker, or prosthetic heart valves

Trial population

The study population will consist of 50 female patients of all ages presenting to the Radiology Department at Sohag University Hospital with adnexal cystic lesions detected on ultrasound. Eligible participants are those with indeterminate or suspicious ultrasound findings requiring further characterization with MRI. Patients will provide written and oral informed consent prior to inclusion.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    Diagnostic test

    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the pelvis will be performed using 1.5T or 3T scanners with a phased-array pelvic coil. The protocol will include axial, sagittal, and coronal T2-weighted images, axial T1-weighted and fat-suppressed T1-weighted images, diffusion-weighted imaging with ADC maps, and dynamic contrast-enhanced sequences when clinically indicated and not contraindicated.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Diagnostic accuracy of MRI in characterization of adnexal cystic lesions

Assessment of the diagnostic performance of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in differentiating benign from malignant adnexal cystic lesions, using histopathology, intraoperative findings, or follow-up imaging as the reference standard. Diagnostic accuracy will be expressed in terms of sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values.

Time frame
From MRI examination until final diagnosis (surgery, histopathology, or follow-up imaging), up to 6 months
