Various benign and malignant tumors and tumor-like
lesions in the female pelvis may appear as cystic
masses. We describe the optimized MR protocol for
evaluating cystic masses and the added value of advanced
MR techniques: Diffusion-weighted imaging; Fat/Water
separation techniques; Susceptibility-weighted imaging;
High-resolution MRI at 3T; 3D-Dynamic contrast enhanced
MRI; MR Spectroscopy, in identifying the tumor origin,
in distinguishing benign and malignant lesions, in
estimating specific histological subtypes, and for the
planning of adequate treatment.
