Introduction: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the diagnostic performance of the so-called Gynecologic Imaging and Report Data System (GI-RADS) for classifying adnexal masses.
Evidence Acquisition: A search for studies reporting about the use of GI-RADS system for classifying adnexal masses from January 2009 to December 2021 was performed in Medline (Pubmed), Google Scholar, Scopus, Cochrane, and Web of Science databases. Pooled sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative likelihood ratios and diagnostic odd ratio (DOR) were calculated.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the diagnostic performance of extended transvaginal sonography for diagnosing deep infiltrating endometriosis.
Methods: A prospective study was conducted comprising 51 women (mean age, 32.9 years; range, 23-43 years) with suspected deep infiltrating endometriosis based on clinical symptoms.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to describe a new reporting system called the Gynecologic Imaging Reporting and Data System (GI-RADS) for reporting findings in adnexal masses based on transvaginal sonography.
Methods: A total of 171 women (mean age, 39 years; range, 16-77 years) suspected of having an adnexal mass were evaluated by transvaginal sonography before treatment. Pattern recognition analysis and color Doppler blood flow location were used for determining the presumptive diagnosis.
