Scared AND Depressed?
Awaiting a biopsy to r/o endometrial cancer and just got ultra results with a "hypoechoic mass" on an ovary - more to worry about or fairly routine?
TIA,
Deborah

I Looked Up Hypoechoic in IntelliHealth Medical Dictionary
and it doesn't come back! I would call your doctor and ask what that means--specifically, is the mass solid or fluid filled and what the doctor plans to do about the result--wait and see, or whatever. Ellen

Scared AND Depressed?
Hi Deborah,
I found a general description of the term "hypoechoic" here on this site...
http://cancerweb.ncl.ac.uk/cgi-bin/o...ion=Search+OMD
I don't know how this relates to your own scan, your Dr should be able to give you the specifics but this might help a bit.
I hope everything turns out okay.
{{Hugs}}
