Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to compare the accuracy of the ADNEX MR scoring system and pattern recognition system to evaluate adnexal lesions indeterminate on the US exam. Methods: In this cross-sectional retrospective study, pelvic DCE-MRI of 245 patients with 340 adnexal masses was studied based on the ADNEX MR scoring system and pattern recognition system. Results: ADNEX MR scoring system with a sensitivity of 96.6% and specificity of 91% has an accuracy of 92.9%. The pattern recognition system’s sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy are 95.8%, 93.3%, and 94.7%, respectively. PPV and NPV for the ADNEX MR scoring system were 85.1 and 98.1, respectively. PPV and NPV for the pattern recognition system were 89.7% and 97.7%, respectively. The area under the ROC curve for the ADNEX MR scoring system and pattern recognition system is 0.938 (95% CI, 0.909-0.967) and 0.950 (95% CI, 0.922-0.977). Pairwise comparison of these AUCs showed no significant difference (p = 0.052). Conclusion: The pattern recognition system is less sensitive than the ADNEX MR scoring system, yet more specific. © (2024), (Asian Pacific Organization for Cancer Prevention). All Rights Reserved.
