Assessment of ultrasound ovarian-adnexal reporting & data system (O-RADS) for pediatric patients
Application of the O-RADS US system in pediatric patients may be challenging due to the low overall malignancy rate. Nevertheless, an O-RADS 2 classification provides meaningful reassurance, reflecting minimal malignancy risk in children. Larger studies are needed to determine the clinical utility of O-RADS US and whether pediatric-specific modifications are required.
