The Study of Female Pelvic Tumor Using Computed Tomograghy ( CT )

Abstract

The study aimed to determine the accuracy of computed tomography in characterize the female pelvic tumors. This study was expandedfrom March 2015 to October 2015, in Yastabshiroon hospital samples of 100 female patients, their ages range from 2 to 82 years, were chosen for CT Abdomen and Pelvis. CT Abdomen and Pelvis was obtained for the entire subject and the location, shape and computed tomography (CT) number were measure from computer and final diagnosis were taken from radiologist report Scanning was done using Toshiba (16slices) machine with slice thickness 5-10 mm, collimation of 0.8*16 mm, 120 kvp, and mAs 150 mill ampere. The result showed, the female within age group (42-52) were more affected group with pelvic tumors while the group of (2-12) were least affected one. also the result show that the most affected organ is the ovary (54%) especially the right one and the least affected organ is the cervix (3%). The research concludes that the MDCT is effective modality regarding female pelvic tumor study and provide a variety of information about tumor behavior.
