Role of multidetector CT in the management of acute female pelvic disease
Emergency Radiology, 03/30/09
Alonso RC et al. - The authors describe MDCT findings of gynecologic and obstetric disorders such as hemorrhagic ovarian cysts, ovarian torsion, pelvic inflammatory disease, ruptured ectopic pregnancy, intravascular leiomyomatosis, blunt maternal trauma, and postpartum and post-cesarean section complications. The authors also briefly review gastrointestinal tract entities that may mimic these conditions. Although ultrasound is the imaging modality of choice for the evaluation of female pelvic pain, the role of MDCT remains essential in the management of patients in which gynecologic exploration is not diagnostic or undone since it is not the initial suspicion.
