Abstract

In conclusion MRI is an excellent tool for the assessment of disorders of the female pelvic organs. MRI is superior to ultrasound and can be used in difficult or equivocal cases.
MRI is a better modality for detection, characterization of various diseases, staging patients with carcinomas where accurate diagnosis will make an impact on their surgical and medical management planning in comparison with USG.
Ultrasound remains the first line of imaging female pelvis, but, however, MRI should be considered for better evaluation and better characterization of the pelvic pathologies.
Limitations: The duration of the study was short so few cases of each tumor type could be collected. A longer duration study with a bigger sample size would show a better picture.
MRI is not used as a primary first line investigation in all the cases due to its cost and lack of availability in most of the places, where in ultrasonography scores better than MRI.
Keeping the technical limitations of sonography in view, the indeterminate lesions, clinical dilemma cases, evaluating high risk patients should be further evaluated on MRI to further characterize the lesion properly and the chances of missing malignant lesions can be reduced.
