RESUMO
The ovarian-adnexal reporting and data system on magnetic resonance imaging (O-RADS MRI) score is now a well-established tool to characterize pelvic gynecological masses based on their likelihood of malignancy. The main added value of O-RADS MRI over O-RADS US is to correctly reclassify lesions that were considered suspicious on US as benign on MRI. The crucial issue when characterizing an adnexal mass is to determine the presence/absence of solid tissue and thus need to perform gadolinium injection. O-RADS MR score was built on a multivariate analysis and must be applied as a step-by-step analysis: 1) Is the mass an adnexal mass? 2) Is there an associated peritoneal carcinomatosis? 3) Is there any significant amount of fatty content? 4) Is there any wall enhancement? 5) Is there any internal enhancement? 6) When an internal enhancement is detected, does the internal enhancement correspond to solid tissue or not? 7) Is the solid tissue malignant? With its high value to distinguish benign from malignant adnexal masses and its high reproducibility, the O-RADS MRI score could be a valuable tool for timely referral of a patient to an expert center for the treatment of ovarian cancers. Finally, to make a precise diagnosis allowing optimal personalized treatment, the radiologist in gynecological imaging will combine the O-RADS MRI score with many other clinical, biological, and other MR criteria to suggest a pathological hypothesis. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 5 TECHNICAL EFFICACY STAGE: 3.

BACKGROUND: The timely identification and management of ovarian cancer are critical determinants of patient prognosis. In this study, we developed and validated a deep learning radiomics nomogram (DLR_Nomogram) based on ultrasound (US) imaging to accurately predict the malignant risk of ovarian tumours and compared the diagnostic performance of the DLR_Nomogram to that of the ovarian-adnexal reporting and data system (O-RADS). METHODS: This study encompasses two research tasks. Patients were randomly divided into training and testing sets in an 8:2 ratio for both tasks. In task 1, we assessed the malignancy risk of 849 patients with ovarian tumours. In task 2, we evaluated the malignancy risk of 391 patients with O-RADS 4 and O-RADS 5 ovarian neoplasms. Three models were developed and validated to predict the risk of malignancy in ovarian tumours. The predicted outcomes of the models for each sample were merged to form a new feature set that was utilised as an input for the logistic regression (LR) model for constructing a combined model, visualised as the DLR_Nomogram. Then, the diagnostic performance of these models was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). RESULTS: The DLR_Nomogram demonstrated superior predictive performance in predicting the malignant risk of ovarian tumours, as evidenced by area under the ROC curve (AUC) values of 0.985 and 0.928 for the training and testing sets of task 1, respectively. The AUC value of its testing set was lower than that of the O-RADS; however, the difference was not statistically significant. The DLR_Nomogram exhibited the highest AUC values of 0.955 and 0.869 in the training and testing sets of task 2, respectively. The DLR_Nomogram showed satisfactory fitting performance for both tasks in Hosmer-Lemeshow testing. Decision curve analysis demonstrated that the DLR_Nomogram yielded greater net clinical benefits for predicting malignant ovarian tumours within a specific range of threshold values. CONCLUSIONS: The US-based DLR_Nomogram has shown the capability to accurately predict the malignant risk of ovarian tumours, exhibiting a predictive efficacy comparable to that of O-RADS.

BACKGROUND: The O-RADS scoring has been proposed to standardize the reporting of adnexal lesions using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). PURPOSE: To assess intra- and inter-observer agreement of the O-RADS scoring using non-dynamic MRI and its agreement with pathologic diagnosis, and to provide the pitfalls in the scoring based on discordant ratings. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Adnexal lesions that were diagnosed using non-dynamic MRI at two centers were scored using O-RADS. Intra- and inter-observer agreements were assessed using kappa statistics. Cross-tabulations were made for intra- and inter-observer ratings and for O-RADS scores and pathological findings. RESULTS: Intra- and inter-observer agreements were assessed for 404 lesions in 339 patients who were admitted to center 1. Intra-observer agreement was almost perfect (97.8%, kappa = 0.963) and inter-observer agreement was substantial (83.2%, kappa = 0.730). The combined data from center 1 and center 2 included 496 patients; of them, 295 (59.5%) were operated. There was no borderline or malignant pathology for the lesions with O-RADS 1 or 2. Of those with an O-RADS score of 3, 3 (4.1%) lesions were borderline and none were malignant. The O-RADS scoring in discriminating borderline/malignant lesions from benign lesions was outstanding (area under the ROC curve 0.950, 95% CI = 0.923-0.971). Sensitivity, specificity, positive, and negative predictive values of O-RADS 4/5 lesions for borderline/malignant lesions were 96.2%, 87.1%, 72.8%, and 98.4%, respectively. CONCLUSION: The O-RADS scoring using non-dynamic MRI is a reproducible method and has good discrimination for borderline/malignant lesions. Potential factors that may lead to discordant ratings are provided here.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To compare performance of Assessment of Different NEoplasias in the adneXa (ADNEX model), Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS), Simple Rules Risk (SRR) assessment and the two-step strategy based on the application of Simple Rules (SR) followed by SRR and SR followed by ADNEX in the pre-operative discrimination between benign and malignant adnexal masses (AMs). METHODS: We conducted a retrospective study from January-2018 to December-2021 in which consecutive patients with at AMs were recruited. Accuracy metrics included sensitivity (SE) and specificity (SP) with their 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated for ADNEX, O-RADS and SRR. When SR was inconclusive a "two-step strategy" was adopted applying SR + ADNEX model and SR + SRR assessment. RESULTS: A total of 514 women were included, 400 (77.8%) had a benign ovarian tumor and 114 (22.2%) had a malignant tumor. At a threshold malignancy risk of >10%, the SE and SP of ADNEX model, O-RADS and SRR were: 0.92 (95% CI, 0.86-0.96) and 0.88 (95% CI, 0.85-0.91); 0.93 (95% CI, 0.87-0.97) and 0.89 (95% CI, 0.96-0.92); 0.88 (95% CI, 0.80-0.93) and 0.84 (95% CI, 0.80-0.87), respectively. When we applied SR, 109 (21.2%) cases resulted inconclusive. The SE and SP of two-step strategy SR + SRR assessment and SR + ADNEX model were 0.88 (95% CI, 0.80-0.93) and 0.92 (95% CI, 0.89-0.94), SR + ADNEX model 0.90 (95% CI, 0.83-0.95) and 0.93 (95% CI, 0.90-0.96), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: O-RADS presented the highest SE, similar to ADNEX model and SR + ADNEX model. However, the SR + ADNEX model presented the higher performance accuracy with the higher SP and PPV. This two-step strategy, SR and ADNEX model applicated to inconclusive SR, is convenient for clinical evaluation.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND. O-RADS ultrasound (US) and O-RADS MRI have been developed to standardize risk stratification of ovarian and adnexal lesions. OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to perform a meta-analysis evaluating the diagnostic performance of O-RADS US and O-RADS MRI for risk stratification of ovarian and adnexal lesions. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION. We searched the Web of Science, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Google Scholar databases from January 1, 2020, until October 31, 2022, for studies reporting on the performance of O-RADS US or O-RADS MRI in the diagnosis of malignancy of ovarian or adnexal lesions. Study quality was assessed with QUADAS-2. A hierarchic summary ROC model was used to estimate pooled sensitivity and specificity. Heterogeneity was assessed with the Q statistic. Metaregression analysis was performed to explore potential sources of heterogeneity. O-RADS US was compared with the International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA) simple rules and Assessment of Different Neoplasias in the Adnexa (ADNEX) model in studies providing head-to-head comparisons. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS. Twenty-six studies comprising 9520 patients were included. O-RADS US was evaluated in 15 and O-RADS MRI in 12 studies; both systems were evaluated in one of the studies. Quality assessment revealed that risk of bias or concern about applicability most commonly related to patient selection. Pooled sensitivity and specificity of O-RADS US were 95% (95% CI, 91-97%) and 82% (95% CI, 76-87%) and of O-RADS MRI were 95% (95% CI, 92-97%) and 90% (95% CI, 84-94%). Analysis with the Q statistic revealed significant heterogeneity among studies of O-RADS US in both sensitivity and specificity (both p < .001) and among studies of O-RADS MRI in specificity (p < .001) but not sensitivity (p = .07). In metaregression, no factor was significantly associated with sensitivity or specificity of either system (all p > .05). O-RADS US showed no significant difference in sensitivity or specificity versus IOTA simple rules in four studies (sensitivity, 96% vs 93%; specificity, 76% vs 82%) or versus the ADNEX model in three studies (sensitivity, 96% vs 96%; specificity, 79% vs 78%). CONCLUSION. O-RADS US and O-RADS MRI both have high sensitivity for ovarian or adnexal malignancy. O-RADS MRI, but not O-RADS US, also has high specificity. CLINICAL IMPACT. Awareness of the diagnostic performance results regarding O-RADS US and O-RADS MRI will be helpful as these systems are increasingly implemented into clinical practice.

The Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) ultrasound (US) and MRI risk stratification systems were developed by an international group of experts in adnexal imaging to aid radiologists in assessing adnexal lesions. The goal of imaging is to appropriately triage patients with adnexal lesions. US is the first-line imaging modality for assessment, whereas MRI can be used as a problem-solving tool. Both US and MRI can accurately characterize benign lesions such as simple cysts, endometriomas, hemorrhagic cysts, and dermoid cysts, avoiding unnecessary or inappropriate surgery. In patients with a lesion that does not meet criteria for one of these benign diagnoses, MRI can further characterize the lesion with an improved specificity for cancer and the ability to provide a probable histologic subtype in the presence of certain MRI features. This allows personalized treatment, including avoiding overly extensive surgery or allowing fertility-sparing procedures for suspected benign, borderline, or low-grade tumors. When MRI findings indicate a risk of an invasive cancer, patients can be expeditiously referred to a gynecologic oncologic surgeon. This narrative review provides expert opinion on the utility of multiparametric MRI when using the O-RADS US and MRI management systems.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to compare the diagnostic efficiency of Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) and doctors' subjective judgment in diagnosing the malignancy risk of adnexal masses. METHODS: This was an analysis of 616 adnexal masses between 2017 and 2020. The clinical findings, preoperative ultrasound images, and pathological diagnosis were recorded. Each adnexal mass was evaluated by doctors' subjective judgment and O-RADS by two senior doctors and two junior doctors. A mass with an O-RADS grade of 1 to 3 was a benign tumor, and a mass with an O-RADS grade of 4-5 was a malignant tumor. All outcomes were compared with the pathological diagnosis. RESULTS: Of the 616 adnexal masses, 469 (76.1%) were benign, and 147 (23.9%) were malignant. There was no difference between the area under the curve of O-RADS and the subjective judgment for junior doctors (0.83 (95% CI: 0.79-0.87) vs. 0.79 (95% CI: 0.76-0.83), p = 0.0888). The areas under the curve of O-RADS and subjective judgment were equal for senior doctors (0.86 (95% CI: 0.83-0.89) vs. 0.86 (95% CI: 0.83-0.90), p = 0.8904). O-RADS had much higher sensitivity than the subjective judgment in detecting malignant tumors for junior doctors (84.4% vs. 70.1%) and senior doctors (91.2% vs. 81.0%). In the subgroup analysis for detecting the main benign lesions of the mature cystic teratoma and ovarian endometriosic cyst, the junior doctors' diagnostic accuracy was obviously worse than the senior doctors' on using O-RADS. CONCLUSIONS: O-RADS had excellent performance in predicting malignant adnexal masses. It could compensate for the lack of experience of junior doctors to a certain extent. Better performance in discriminating various benign lesions should be expected with some complement.

BACKGROUND: Ovarian tumors (OTs) are common gynecological tumors in women. It is very important to correctly distinguish benign and malignant OTs. PURPOSE: To assess the diagnostic performance of the American College of Radiology (ACR) Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) and evaluate the clinical value of O-RADS combined with serum carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) and human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) in differentiating benign from malignant OTs. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed on 431 cases including pathology and clinical data. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn, and sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy were calculated. RESULTS: In premenopausal women, O-RADS and O-RADS combined with serum CA125 and HE4 showed sensitivity at 92.2% and 94.8%, specificity at 91.8% and 93.4%, and accuracy at 91.9% and 93.8%, respectively. In postmenopausal women, the sensitivity of O-RADS, O-RADS combined with serum CA125 and HE4 was 94.8% and 95.8%, specificity was 83.9% and 93.6%, and accuracy was 90.5% and 95.6%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of O-RADS combined with CA125 and HE4 in premenopausal and postmenopausal women were higher than that of O-RADS (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: O-RADS has high diagnostic performance in OTs. When O-RADS is combined with CA125 and HE4 in the diagnosis of OTs, the sensitivity and specificity are improved, which is helpful to improve the diagnostic efficiency of OTs and has high clinical application value.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the individual and combined performances of the Ovarian-adnexal Reporting and Data System Ultrasound (O-RADS US) and serum cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) in assessing adnexal malignancy risk in women with different menopausal status. METHODS: This retrospective study included patients with adnexal masses scheduled for surgery based on their preoperative US and histopathology results between January 2018 and January 2020. O-RADS were used to assess adnexal malignancy by two experienced radiologists. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) were used to compare the accuracy of O-RADS and a combination of O-RADS and CA-125. The weighted κ index was used to evaluate the inter-reviewer agreement. RESULTS: Overall, the data of 443 lesions in 443 patients were included, involving 312 benign lesions and 131 malignant lesions. There were 361 premenopausal and 82 postmenopausal patients. The inter-reviewer agreement for the two radiologists was very good (weighted κ: 0.833). Combing O-RADS US and CA-125 significantly increased diagnostic accuracy for classifying malignant from benign adnexal masses, compared with O-RADS US alone (AUC: 0.97 vs 0.95, P < .001 for premenopausal population and AUC: 0.93 vs 0.85, P < .001 for postmenopausal population). The AUCs of O-RADS with and without CA-125 ranged from 0.50 to 0.99 for different adnexal pathology subtypes (ie, benign, borderline, Stage I-IV, and metastatic tumors). CONCLUSION: The addition of CA-125 helps improve discrimination of O-RADS US between benign and malignant adnexal masses, especially in postmenopausal women.

PURPOSE: To investigate the predictive performance and reproducibility of Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) ultrasound (US) system in evaluating adnexal masses between sonologists with varying levels of expertise. METHODS: This was a single-center retrospective study conducted between May 2019 and May 2020, which included 147 adnexal mases with pathological results. Four sonologists with varying experiences independently assigned an O-RADS US category to each adnexal mass twice. The intra- and inter-observer agreement was assessed using weighted kappa values. The area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value (PPV and NPV) were assessed for each sonologist. RESULTS: Of the 147 adnexal mases, 115 (78.2%) lesions were benign and 32 (21.8%) lesions were malignant. Considering O-RADS > 3 as a predictor for adnexal malignancy, the predictive accuracies of the four sonologists were excellent, with AUCs ranging from 0.831 to 0.926. The predictive accuracies of O-RADS US by experienced sonologists were significantly higher compared to inexperienced sonologists (all P values < 0.005). The O-RADS US presented high sensitivity and NPV value for each sonologist. With regard to the reproducibility of O-RADS, the intra- and inter-observer agreement among experienced sonologists performed better than inexperienced sonologists. CONCLUSION: O-RADS showed difference in the predictive accuracy and reproducibility in the evaluation of adnexal masses among sonologists with different levels of expertise. Training is required for inexperienced sonologists before the generalization of O-RADS classification system in clinical practice.

PURPOSE: Introduce DWI and quantitative ADC evaluation in O-RADS MRI system and observe how diagnostic performance changes. Assess its validity and reproducibility between readers with different experience in female pelvic imaging. Finally, evaluate any correlation between ADC value and histotype in malignant lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In total, 173 patients with 213 indeterminate adnexal masses (AMs) on ultrasound were subjected to MRI examination, from which 140 patients with 172 AMs were included in the final analysis. Standardised MRI sequences were used, including DWI and DCE sequences. Two readers, blinded to histopathological data, retrospectively classified AMs according to the O-RADS MRI scoring system. A quantitative analysis method was applied by placing a ROI on the ADC maps obtained from single-exponential DWI sequences. AMs considered benign (O-RADS MRI score 2) were excluded from the ADC analysis. RESULTS: Excellent inter-reader agreement was found in the classification of lesions according to the O-RADS MRI score (K = 0.936; 95% CI). Two ROC curves were created to determine the optimal cut-off value for the ADC variable between O-RADS MRI categories 3-4 and 4-5, respectively, 1.411 × 10-3 mm2/sec and 0.849 × 10-3 mm2/sec. Based on these ADC values, 3/45 and 22/62 AMs were upgraded, respectively, to score 4 and 5, while 4/62 AMs were downgraded to score 3. ADC values correlated significantly with the ovarian carcinoma histotype (p value < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrates the prognostic potential of DWI and ADC values in the O-RADS MRI classification for better radiological standardisation and characterisation of AMs.

The American College of Radiology (ACR) Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) lexicon and risk assessment tool for ultrasound (US) provides a framework for characterization of ovarian and adnexal pathology with the ultimate goal of harmonizing reporting and patient management strategies. Since the first O-RADS US publication in 2018, multiple validation studies have shown O-RADS US to have excellent diagnostic accuracy, with the majority of these studies using O-RADS 4 as the optimal cut-off for detecting ovarian cancer. Most of the existing validation studies include a dedicated training phase and confirm that ORADS US categories and lexicon descriptors are associated with high level inter-read agreement, regardless of radiologist training level or practice experience. O-RADS US has a similar inter-reader agreement when compared to Gynecologic Imaging Reporting and Data System (GIRADS), Assessment of Different Neoplasias in the adnexa (ADNEX), and International Tumor Analysis Group (IOTA) simple rules. System descriptors have been shown to correlate with expected malignancy rates and the O-RADS US risk stratification system has been shown to perform in the expected range of malignancy risk per category. Further directions will focus on clarifying governing concepts and lexicon terminology as well as further refining risk stratification categories based on data from published validation studies.

The Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) ultrasound (US) risk stratification and management system was first published by the American College of Radiology in 2020. It provides standardized terminology for evaluation of ovarian and adnexal masses, aids risk stratification, and provides management guidelines for different categories of lesions. This system has been validated by subsequent research and found to be a useful diagnostic and management tool. However, as noted in the system's governing concepts, in some clinical scenarios, such as patients with acute symptoms or with a history of ovarian malignancy, O-RADS US does not apply, or the system's standard management may be adjusted. Additional scenarios, such as an adnexal mass in pregnancy, present challenges in the application of O-RADS US to assist diagnosis and management. The purpose of this article is to highlight 10 clinical scenarios in which O-RADS US version 1 may not apply, may be difficult to apply, or may require modified management. Additional scenarios in which O-RADS US can be appropriately applied are also described.

OBJECTIVES: To apply the International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA) Simple Rules (SR), the IOTA Simple Rules risk assessment (SRR), the IOTA Assessment of Different NEoplasias in the adneXa (ADNEX) model and the Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) in the same cohort of North American patients and to compare their performance in preoperative discrimination between benign and malignant adnexal lesions. METHODS: This was a single-center diagnostic accuracy study, performed between March 2018 and February 2021, which included 150 women with an adnexal lesion. Using the ADNEX model, lesions were classified prospectively, whereas the SR, SRR assessment and O-RADS were applied retrospectively. Surgery with histological analysis was performed within 6 months of the ultrasound exam. Sensitivity and specificity were determined for each testing modality and the performance of the different modalities was compared. RESULTS: Of the 150 women, 110 (73.3%) had a benign ovarian tumor and 40 (26.7%) had a malignant tumor. The mean risk of malignancy generated by the ADNEX model without CA 125 was significantly higher in malignant vs benign lesions (63.3% vs 11.8%) and the area under the receiver-operating-characteristics curve (AUC) of the ADNEX model for differentiating between benign and malignant adnexal masses at the time of ultrasound examination was 0.937. The mean risk of malignancy generated by SRR assessment was also significantly higher in malignant vs benign lesions (74.1% vs 15.9%) and the AUC was 0.941. To compare the ADNEX model, SRR assessment and O-RADS, the malignancy risk threshold was set at ≥ 10%. This cut-off differentiates O-RADS low-risk categories (Category ≤ 3) from intermediate-to-high-risk categories (Categories 4 and 5). At this cut-off, the sensitivity of the ADNEX model was 97.5% (95% CI, 85.3%-99.9%) and the specificity was 63.6% (95% CI, 53.9%-72.4%), and, for the SRR model, the sensitivity was 100% (95% CI, 89.1%-100%) and the specificity was 51.8% (95% CI, 42.1%-61.4%). In the 113 cases to which the SR could be applied, the sensitivity was 100% (95% CI, 81.5%-100%) and the specificity was 95.6% (95% CI, 88.5%-98.6%). If the remaining 37 cases, which were inconclusive under SR, were designated 'malignant', the sensitivity remained at 100% but the specificity was reduced to 79.1% (95% CI, 70.1%-86.0%). The 150 cases fell into the following O-RADS categories: 17 (11.3%) lesions in Category 2, 34 (22.7%) in Category 3, 66 (44.0%) in Category 4 and 33 (22.0%) in Category 5. There were no histologically proven malignant lesions in Category 2 or 3. There were 14 malignant lesions in Category 4 and 26 in Category 5. The sensitivity of O-RADS using a malignancy risk threshold of ≥ 10% was 100% (95% CI, 89.1%-100.0%) and the specificity was 46.4% (95% CI, 36.9%-56.1%). CONCLUSIONS: When IOTA terms and techniques are used, the performance of IOTA models in a North American patient population is in line with published IOTA results in other populations. The IOTA SR, SRR assessment and ADNEX model and O-RADS have similar sensitivity in the preoperative discrimination of malignant from benign pelvic tumors; however, the IOTA models have higher specificity and the algorithm does not require the use of magnetic resonance imaging. © 2022 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.

OBJECTIVES: To describe the ultrasonographic signs of ovarian collision tumors and evaluate the malignancy risk using the O-RADS system. METHODS: This was a retrospective analysis of 25 ovarian collision tumors from 8739 patients between May 2010 and January 2020. All clinical characteristics, ultrasound images, and histological findings were collected and analyzed. Using the O-RADS lexicon descriptors, the O-RADS score was determined by two senior doctors. Lesions with O-RADS scores of 1 to 3 were classified as benign tumors, and lesions with O-RADS scores of 4 to 5 were classified as malignant tumors. RESULTS: The mean age of the 25 patients was 30.4 years. Histological findings showed that all tumors were a combination of mature cystic teratomas and cystadenomas/cystadenocarcinomas. There were 11 benign tumors of O-RADS 2 or 3, including 3 uniocular cysts, 3 dermoid cysts, and 5 dermoid cysts with an anechoic fluid cavity. There were 12 benign tumors of O-RADS 4, including 3 uniocular-multilocular cysts with solid components, 2 multilocular cysts with irregular walls, and 8 multilocular cysts with dermoid sacs. One borderline tumor of O-RADS 4 was a multilocular cyst with irregular septation. One malignant tumor of O-RADS 5 was a multilocular cystic tumor with solid components and ascites. CONCLUSIONS: The most common ovarian collision tumor was the coexistence of a mature cystic teratoma and a cystadenoma. The O-RADS system was able to sensitively detect malignant tumors in this series. A typical dermoid cyst with an anechoic cavity or a multilocular cyst with a dermoid sac may signify a benign collision tumor.

OBJECTIVE: To externally validate the Ovarian-adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) and evaluate its performance in differentiating benign from malignant adnexal masses (AMs) compared with the Gynecologic Imaging Reporting and Data System (GI-RADS) and Assessment of Different NEoplasias in the adneXa (ADNEX). METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed on 734 cases from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University. All patients underwent transvaginal or transabdominal ultrasound examination. Pathological diagnoses were obtained for all the included AMs. O-RADS, GI-RADS, and ADNEX were used to evaluate AMs by two sonologists, and the diagnostic efficacy of the three systems was analyzed and compared using pathology as the gold standard. We used the kappa index to evaluate the inter-reviewer agreement (IRA). RESULTS: A total of 734 AMs, including 564 benign masses, 69 borderline masses, and 101 malignant masses were included in this study. O-RADS (0.88) and GI-RADS (0.90) had lower sensitivity than ADNEX (0.95) (P < .05), and the PPV of O-RADS (0.98) was higher than that of ADNEX (0.96) (P < .05). These three systems showed good IRA. CONCLUSION: O-RADS, GI-RADS, and ADNEX showed little difference in diagnostic performance among resident sonologists. These three systems have their own characteristics and can be selected according to the type of center, access to patients' clinical data, or personal comfort.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the diagnostic performance and inter-observer agreement of the American College of Radiology (ACR) Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System Ultrasound (O-RADS US). METHODS: From January 2016 to December 2018 a total of 1054 adnexal lesions in 1035 patients with pathologic results from two hospitals were retrospectively included. Each lesion was assigned to an O-RADS US category according to the criteria. Kappa (κ) statistics were applied to assess inter-observer agreement between a less experienced and an expert radiologist. RESULTS: Of the 1054 adnexal lesions, 750 were benign and 304 were malignant. The malignancy rates of O-RADS 5, O-RADS 4, O-RADS 3, and O-RADS 2 lesions were 89.57%, 34.46%, 1.10%, and 0.45% respectively. Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.960 (95% CI, 0.947-0.971). The optimal cutoff value for predicting malignancy was >O-RADS 3 with a sensitivity and specificity of 98.7% (95% CI, 0.964-0.996) and 83.2% (95% CI, 0.802-0.858) respectively. When sub-classifying multilocular cysts and smooth solid lesions in O-RADS 4 lesions as O-RADS 4a lesions and the rest cystic lesions with solid components as O-RADS 4b lesions, the malignancy rate were 17.02% and 42.57% respectively, which showed better risk stratification (P < 0.001). The inter-observer agreement between a less-experienced and an expert radiologist of O-RADS categorization was good (κ = 0.714). CONCLUSIONS: The ACR O-RADS US provides effective malignancy risk stratification for adnexal lesions with high reliability for radiologists with different experience. Sub-grouping of O-RADS 4 lesions into two groups facilitated better stratification of the intermediate risk.

The Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) is a lexicon and risk stratification tool designed for the accurate characterization of adnexal lesions and is essential for optimal patient management. O-RADS is a recent addition to the American College of Radiology (ACR) reporting and data systems and consists of ultrasound (US) and MRI arms. Since most ovarian or adnexal lesions are first detected with US, O-RADS US is considered the primary assessment tool. Application of O-RADS US is recommended whenever a nonphysiologic lesion is encountered. Lesion characterization may be streamlined by use of an algorithmic approach focused on relevant features and an abbreviated version of the lexicon. Resources to expedite O-RADS US categorization and determination of a management recommendation include easy online access to the ACR color-coded risk stratification scorecards and an O-RADS US calculator that is available as a smartphone app. Reporting should be concise and include relevant features for risk stratification that adhere to lexicon terminology. Technical considerations include optimization of gray-scale and color Doppler technique and performance of problem-solving maneuvers to help avoid common pitfalls. This review provides a user-friendly summary of O-RADS US with practical tips for everyday clinical use.

In 2021, the American College of Radiology (ACR) Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) MRI Committee developed a risk stratification system and lexicon for assessing adnexal lesions using MRI. Like the BI-RADS classification, O-RADS MRI provides a standardized language for communication between radiologists and clinicians. It is essential for radiologists to be familiar with the O-RADS algorithmic approach to avoid misclassifications. Training, like that offered by International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA), is essential to ensure accurate and consistent application of the O-RADS MRI system. Tools such as the O-RADS MRI calculator aim to ensure an algorithmic approach. This review highlights the key teaching points, pearls, and pitfalls when using the O-RADS MRI risk stratification system.Critical relevance statement This article highlights the pearls and pitfalls of using the O-RADS MRI scoring system in clinical practice.Key points⢠Solid tissue is described as displaying post- contrast enhancement.⢠Endosalpingeal folds, fimbriated end of the tube, smooth wall, or septa are not solid tissue.⢠Low-risk TIC has no shoulder or plateau. An intermediate-risk TIC has a shoulder and plateau, though the shoulder is less steep compared to outer myometrium.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: The International ovarian tumor analysis (IOTA)-Assessment of Different NEoplasias in the adneXa (ADNEX) model and the ovarian-adnexal reporting and data system (O-RADS) were developed to improve the diagnostic accuracy of adnexal masses in the preoperative period. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive values of both models in patients who underwent surgery for an adnexal mass at our hospital, based on the final pathological results. METHODS: This study included patients who underwent surgery for adnexal masses at our hospital between 2019 and 2021 and met the inclusion criteria. The IOTA ADNEX model and O-RADS scores were calculated preoperatively. RESULTS: Of the 413 patients, 295 were diagnosed with benign tumors and 118 were diagnosed with malignant tumors. The mean cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) levels for patients diagnosed with benign and malignant were 15.2 unit/mL and 72.5 unit/mL, respectively. According to the receiver operator characteristic analysis for serum CA-125 in postmenopausal and premenopausal patients, the cutoff value of 34.8 unit/mL had a sensitivity of 70.8% and specificity of 83.8% and 180.5 unit/mL had a sensitivity of 32.1% and a specificity of 92.7%, respectively (P<0.001). The sensitivity and specificity values of the IOTA ADNEX model and O-RADS were found as 78.8-48.3% and 97.9-93.5% respectively (P<0.001). There was moderate agreement between the IOTA ADNEX model and O-RADS (Kappa=0.53). CONCLUSION: The IOTA ADNEX model has a similar specificity to the O-RADS in malignancy risk assessment, but the sensitivity of the IOTA ADNEX model is higher than that of the O-RADS. The IOTA-ADNEX model can help avoid unnecessary surgeries.
