Adnexal masses pose a diagnostic dilemma to the gynaecologist as well as radiologist because of their varied spectrum. The most important thing that needs to be determined is that whether the lesion is benign or malignant, so that the patient gets the appropriate treatment based on the pathology. Hence, the aim of the present study was to determine the accuracy of MRI in diagnosing benign and malignant adnexal lesions and its correlation with histopathological findings.
