Decreased attenuation difference between non-contrast and portal-venous phases of CT predicts the ultrasonography-unspecified adnexal torsion
The value of contrast-enhanced CT in diagnosing ultrasonography-unspecified AT is underestimated. The ΔHU<sub>PV-NC</sub> ≤ 17.5 HU is the only predictor to diagnose the ultrasonography-unspecified AT. Contrast-enhanced CT can be used as a second-line imaging approach after an equivocal ultrasonographic examination.
