Abstract

Purpose

Ultrasonography is routinely used for the examination of ovarian tumors regarding preoperative diagnosis and postoperative therapeutic evaluation. However, its sensitivity and specificity in determining benign from malignant tumors should be further improved. In this study, we review the methods of sonographic scoring system for differentiating benign from malignant ovarian tumors, and its development and application.

Methods

We searched the Medline, EBSCO and China National Knowledge Infrastructure from inception to April 2015, we also used the Google Scholar search engine to obtain studies.

Results

The ultrasonic scoring system has important clinical value in the preoperative diagnosis of ovarian neoplasm, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy are significantly higher than using conventional ultrasonography by various of ultrasonic techniques, including two-dimensional sonographic imaging, color Doppler imaging, power Doppler ultrasound, real-time three-dimensional ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography.

Conclusions

The sonographic scoring system can significantly improve the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of ultrasonic diagnosis in ovarian tumors, and provides a semi-quantitative method for determining the nature of ovarian masses, guidance of the surgical treatment and evaluation of prognosis.
