Comparing the physical characteristics of ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging to diagnose ovarian cysts

Background, For the purpose of determining the appropriate course of therapy to maintain fertility, a correct diagnosis of ovarian cysts is crucial. Objective, To contrast the results of magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasonography in individuals with ovarian cysts . Methods: research was carried out in the radiology division of Al-Hilla General Teaching hospital and Marjan Teaching Hospital in province Babil in the period of November 2023 and march 2024, Seventy-five Following a physical and ultrasonography examination, the female patient was assessed using magnetic resonance imaging. Women in the over-18 age group exhibit a range of symptoms, such as irregular menstruation, abdominal pain, sensoria, and menorrhagia. Results: Adnexal lesions on US imaging included chocolate cysts (14.6%), dermoid cysts (13.8%), hemorrhagic cysts (HC) (11.6%), simple cysts (32.4%), complicated cysts (21.2%), and multilocular cysts (MC) (6.4%).Simple cysts (SC) made up 29%, complex cysts (6.9%), dermoid cysts (10.9%), chocolate cysts (19.1%), hemorrhagic cysts (HC) 11.3%, multilocular cysts (6.8%), and malignant cysts (MC) 16% of the adnexal lesions on MRI. The USG results show 100% sensitivity, 78.3% specificity, and 89.3% accuracy when compared to the MRI results. Conclusions: Magnetic resonance imaging, which is quite accurate in determining the mass's origin and characterizing its tissue content, may be beneficial in further evaluating monographically vague ovarian cysts with solid or complicated content
