Abstract

Ultrasound (US), computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are the "gold standard" among gynecological imaging methods. They are important diagnostic tools used to determine the site of origin of a pelvic mass and to characterize the adnexal lesions. This paper summarizes the diagnostic performance of ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging in various gynecological diseases and tumours diagnostics.

Keywords: cancer; computed tomography; magnetic resonance imaging; oncology.
