Structural transvaginal ultrasonographic findings of 12 ovarian tumors were compared with the findings of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and their usefulness was evaluated. Of the ovarian tumors from 12 women (mean age, 41 years; range, 20-71 years), 3 were dermoid cysts, 5 were endometrial cysts, and 4 were ovarian carcinomas. Transabdominal and transvaginal ultrasonography (TVUS) and MRI were performed on these tumors preoperatively and the histopathological diagnoses were confirmed. The imagings of TVUS and MRI were evaluated in terms of contents, inner wall and septum, capsule and solid portion of the ovarian tumors. The findings showed that TVUS can detect hair in dermoid cysts, adhesion in endometrial cysts and the papillation from ovarian carcinoma better than MRI. But MRI can clearly identify hemorrhagic contents in endometrial cysts and the invasion in ovarian carcinoma better than TVUS. The image quality of the Aloka SSD 650 used for TVUS was better than that of the Mitsubishi MRI-150 S used for MRI. Both TVUS and MRI are useful in the differential diagnosis of ovarian tumors and each offers a distinctive advantage over the other.
