Abstract

Abstract : (Abstracted from Gynecol Oncol 2017;145(1):122–129) Currently, there is no safe and effective ovarian cancer screening (OCS) test, and novel screening modalities are being investigated. Recently, the Risk of Ovarian Cancer Algorithm (ROCA), a novel screening strategy, has shown promise among average-risk and high-risk women.
