Synopsis

Keywords: Urogenital, CEST & MTThe precise assessment of ovarian tumor, which is complex in presentation and classification, is important for clinical decision making. The value of amide proton transfer weighted (APTw) imaging in the assessment of ovarian lesion has not been comprehensively researched. In this study, we investigated the value of APTw imaging in differentiating ovarian high-grade serous carcinomas from borderline serous tumors. It was found that APT value of high-grade tumor was significantly lower than that of borderline tumor. Our finding indicates the potential of using APTw imaging as a novel method for the differentiation diagnosis of ovarian cancers.
