N2  - The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of  recent functional MRI techniques (Including DW-MRI, DCE-MRI &  MRS) in diagnosis and the characterization of ovarian neoplasms & also  in their management.   Ovarian masses present a special challenge for two reasons. First,  they are the leading indication for gynaecologic surgery. Second, ovarian  cancer remains the leading cause of death from gynaecologic malignancy;  it is the second most common gynaecological malignancy with the  highest mortality rate of all gynaecological malignancies and an overall  5-year survival rate of 46%.   MRI is a valuable tool that has been used to discriminate benign  from malignant or borderline from frankly malignant ovarian tumours  with a major role in the diagnosis, management, and follow up
