“…The study of small ovarian cysts involves the use of T2-weighted, turbo spin echo (TSE) sequences (which can be acquired more rapidly than spin echo sequences) and coronal and axial scansion planes, which provide the best visualization of the adnexae [54]. The images reveal multiple subcortical cysts, of uniform size and with very thin walls that may be contrast-enhanced.…”

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex disease with heterogeneous clinical and anatomical features that were first described in 1721 by Antonio Vallisneri. There is still a lack of consensus regarding the criteria to be used for diagnosis of PCOS. Transvaginal ultrasonography with Doppler studies of the ovarian and pelvic vasculature plays an important role in its diagnosis, but findings must be interpreted in light of the patient's symptoms and laboratory findings.Sommario La complessità e l'eterogeneità anatomica e clinica dell'espressione della sindrome dell'ovaio policistico (PCOS) costituisce a tutt'oggi una problematica nella quale la valutazione ecografica rappresenta una componente importante nella diagnosi, che si deve integrare con i sintomi clinici e le alterazioni biochimiche proprie della sindrome descritta per la prima volta da Antonio Vallisneri nel 1721. I criteri per la diagnosi sono eterogenei come la stessa patologia. ª
