  • The Role of Ultrasonic Score, Blood Vessels and Vascular Resistance Index in Diagnosing Ovarian Tumors

    ObjectiveTo explore the value of ultrasonic score, blood vessels and vascular resistance index in predicting and diagnosing benign and malignant ovarian tumor. MethodsA total of 157 patients with ovarian tumors (77 benign and 80 malignant) aged from 19 to 68 years old (average 56 years) between January 2008 and June 2012 were enrolled in the research. The ultrasonic score, blood vessels and vascular resistance index were recorded, and the differences between benign and malignant tumor were compared according to the pathological diagnosis; Their sensitivities and specificities were analyzed with the preoperative prediction. ResultsIn benign ovarian tumor, ultrasound scores and blood vessels index were obviously lower than that in the malignant tumor (P<0.05); the vascular resistance index was much higher than that in the malignant tumor (P<0.05). The sensitivities and specificities in diagnosing malignant tumor were high when the ultrasonic score was ≥ 2, vascular index was>0.02/cm3, and blood flow resistance index was ≤ 0.6. The sensitivities were 92.5%, 90.0%, 87.5%, respectively; while the specificities were 90.9%, 89.6%, 84.4%, respectively. ConclusionUltrasonic score, blood vessels and vascular resistance index have significance for identifying benign and malignant ovarian tumors; ultrasonic score is more accurate which has high value of clinical application and popularization.
