Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the Gynecology Imaging Reporting and Data System (GI-RADS) for diagnosis of malignant adnexal masses in a Chinese population. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted of patients who underwent evaluation of suspected adnexal masses at a hospital in Tianjin, China, between January 1, 2015, and January 31, 2016. Ultrasonographic diagnosis was based on the GI-RADS classification-a standardized summary of imaging data that estimates the risk of malignancy-and compared with the final pathological diagnosis. RESULTS: Among 242 patients, thick wall, solid papillary projection, solid area, central blood flow, ascites, and GI-RADS classification were associated with malignancy (P<0.05 for all variables). The 263 masses evaluated were classified as GI-RADS 2 (functional cyst; n=65), GI-RADS 3 (benign neoplasm; n=68), GI-RADS 4 (one or two morphological findings suggestive of malignancy; n=101), and GI-RADS 5 (≥3 morphological findings suggestive of malignancy; n=28). Four malignant cases with false-negative findings were misclassified as GI-RADS 3, whereas 24 benign cases with false-positive findings were misclassified as GI-RADS 4. The sensitivity, specificity, false-positive rate, false-negative rate, accuracy, and Youden index of the GI-RADS classification were 96.4%, 84.3%, 18.5%, 3.0%, 89.3%, and 80.7%, respectively. CONCLUSION: The GI-RADS classification performed well in the diagnosis of malignant adnexal masses.
