ROMA index (Risk of Ovarian Malignancy Algorithm)<\/b> is a comprehensive study designed to stratify the risk of epithelial ovarian cancer in women with detected pelvic masses.<\/p>\n
CA-125 alone often gives false-positive results in endometriosis, cysts, or pelvic inflammatory disease, and may also remain normal in the early stages of cancer. Adding a highly sensitive marker HE4<\/b> and the use of a mathematical calculation algorithm taking into account hormonal status (pre- or postmenopause) significantly increases the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of diagnosis.<\/p>\n Malignancy assessment:<\/b> Determining the probability that a detected formation (cyst, tumor) in the ovary is malignant.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Early diagnosis:<\/b> Detection of epithelial ovarian cancer in the initial (I\u2013II) stages.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Patient routing:<\/b> Assisting the gynecologist in making a decision to refer the patient for consultation or surgical treatment to a specialized gynecological oncologist.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Treatment monitoring:<\/b> Assessment of the effectiveness of the therapy and detection of relapses in patients with an established diagnosis.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n Women who have ovarian masses (cysts, tumors) detected during an ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI of the pelvic organs.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Women with symptoms that may indicate ovarian pathology (lower abdominal pain, abdominal distension, bloating, urinary incontinence).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Patients with a high family risk of ovarian or breast cancer.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n For dynamic monitoring after surgical or medical treatment of ovarian cancer.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n On an empty stomach:<\/b> Blood is donated in the morning on an empty stomach (after 8\u201312 hours of fasting).
