I am 61 and was told I had something on my right ovary...transvaginal ultrasound and dr said I had a mass or cyst or tumor was not solid and was 6x8x10cm and she said my age and the size more than likely it was cancer. Would this be true without byopsy?
Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor, thanks for the query.in most cases there are some morphological characteristics on ultrasound which can indicate malignancy, but of course us is operator dependent, and it is not always 100% sure. So it is impossible to rule cancer out for sure, and if there are doubts you should do tumor markers, ct scan or diagnostic laparoscopy. But in most cases frequent ultrasound follow up is enough to prevent any surprises.  Wish you good health. Regards
