The goal of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the role of ultrasound-guided tru-cut biopsy (in the hands of an expert certified sonographer within a gynecological center)in patients with suspected ovarian cancer.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
Is the material from tru-cut biopsy adequate for histopathological and immunohistochemical examination? Is the material accurate in comparison with the final pathological specimen? What are the patient experience and complications after the procedure?
Participants who will undergo a standard tru-cut biopsy procedure will need to additionally answer the questionnaire.
