Errors by the JR due to misinterpretation of the classification. A A 31-year-old woman presented a right ovarian mass with macroscopic fat content (blue arrow) and a high amount of solid-enhancing tissue (T1W FS + C series). The mass does not have a Rokitansky nodule. It was classified as score 2 by the JR but the histological result showed an immature teratoma. Teratomas do not fit the classification well as they can have low, intermediate or high-risk TIC. In this case, the mass had an intermediate TIC. It is difficult to distinguish mature from immature teratoma and thus, it is stipulated that if they present a high amount of solid tissue, they should be classified with a score of 4. B A 79-year-old woman with a left ovarian mass (yellow arrow) with solid hyperenhancing tissue (T1W FS + C series). The TIC was interpreted as low risk by the JR and the mass was misclassified as score 3. Pathological analysis after surgery confirmed that it was a clear cell carcinoma arising from a cystadenoma. In this case, the TIC was an intermediate-risk curve as it had an initial increase lower than the myometrium, followed by a plateau
