A prospective study conducted in Rome, Italy, and published in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, evaluated a clinical ultrasound-based algorithm for identifying malignancy risks in patients with myometrial lesions. This algorithm uses specific diagnostic criteria to differentiate between benign and malignant lesions in combination with magnetic resonance imaging. The study found that the algorithm demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity and could stratify women according to their risk of malignancy, providing a personalized clinical approach. The researchers concluded that multicenter studies are needed to confirm the algorithm's clinical applicability.
