Detailed Answer:
Hi dear and thanks for your query.
I understand your concern and I will try to help you.
In fact Ct scan is very sensitive in diagnosing ovarian cancer ,but while other consideration includes and a complicated /hemorrhagic cyst and you don't refer for any symptoms ,hope for better results.
Transvaginal ultrasound can help to show whether any cysts on your ovaries contain cancer or not. If a cyst has any solid areas it is more likely to be cancer.
To decide if an abnormality is more likely to be cancer or not, doctors can use a tool called the risk of malignancy index (RMI). This index combines the results of the ultrasound, CA125 blood levels and menopausal status (whether or not you are past the menopause). This gives doctors a final score. Women with a high score are referred to a specialist multidisciplinary team who will decide on which further tests and surgery may be necessary.
Hence wait and hope for good .
