Q6 Ovarian Cyst
Select all the components required to calculate RMI ( Risk of Malignancy Index)
RMI is calculated using serum CA-125 (CA-125); menopausal status (M); and ultrasound score (U).
The RMI is a product of the ultrasound scan score, the menopausal status and the serum CA-125
level (IU/ml) as follows:
RMI = U x M x CA-125.
? The ultrasound result is scored 1 point for each of the following characteristics: multilocular cysts, solid areas,
metastases, ascites and bilateral lesions. U = 0 (for an ultrasound score of 0), U = 1 (for an ultrasound score of
1), U = 3 (for an ultrasound score of 2–5).
- The menopausal status is scored as 1 = premenopausal and 3 = postmenopausal.
- Postmenopausal can be defined as women who have had no period for more than one year or women over
the age of 50 who have had a hysterectomy.
- Serum CA-125 is measured in IU/ml
