MRI scan of early-stage 1A high-grade serous ovarian cancer. The BRCA1-positive patient was identified through ultrasound screening, confirmed by MRI. The right ovary contains as cyst with an enhancing nodule (red arrows) demonstrated on the T1 fat-saturated image before (a) and after (b) contrast administration. The nodule enhances brightly, similar to the adjacent uterine myometrium (white arrow). Detection of ovarian cancer at this early stage is associated with a significantly improved 5-year survival rate compared with later stages of disease (courtesy: A. Rockall)
