Both CA-125 and RMI have good validity in the diagnosis of ovarian tumors. CA-125 has higher sensitivity; however, RMI has higher specificity. In combination, CA-125 might be more valid for the diagnosis of malignant ovarian cancer while RMI is more valid for excluding the diagnosis of these tumors. Differential use of these two tools will improve the triage of women with suspected ovarian tumors since both are measured in their work-up. We recommended the use of both tools in primary care to reduce referral to gynecology or oncology units.
