Abstract:

To evaluate the utility of the pharmacokinetic modeling derived from dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) in differentiating benign from malignant adnexal masses. Methods: A total of 43 patients with 49 complex adnexal masses (27 benign, 3 borderline, and 19 malignant lesions) underwent preoperative DCE-MRI examinations on a 3 Tesla MRI. Using extended Tofts` model, quantitative analysis was performed in the solid components of all tumors.
