  • Title: Imaging of questionable and unusual pelvic masses.
    Author: Reuter KL, D'Orsi CJ, Raptopoulos V, Evers K.
    Journal: Br J Radiol; 1986 Aug; 59(704):765-71. PubMed ID: 3524736.
    Abstract:
    Ultrasonography is usually the initial diagnostic examination performed for evaluating gynaecological conditions and pelvic masses. The authors' experience with 11 "problem cases" and a review of the literature of such enigmas has led to the following recommendations in the following order: a plain radiograph or repeat ultrasound study; ultrasound study with the water enema technique; gastrointestinal examination if the answer is still not apparent, followed by computed tomography or a real-time ultrasound study during a clinical pelvic examination.
