Ovarian cyst after ct scan now going for ultrasound to see what?

More information: Ultrasound can better assess if the cyst is simple, has blood products in it, or is a associated with a soft tissue mass. Color doppler on ultrasound further adds information about blood flow around the cyst. You should know the great majority of ovarian cysts are benign but your doctor can better know from the ultrasound if there is anything concerning or if a followup ultrasound would be useful.

To Confirm Benignity: Ultrasound is the primary and preferred imaging modality in evaluation of adnexal/ovarian cysts. It can correctly categorize majority of adnexal/ovarian lesions into benign (vast majority of cystic adnexal lesions) vs potentially malignant (minority of adnexal lesions) based on grayscale and doppler us features. Ct scan is limited in categorizing ovarian lesions into benign vs malignant.
