Design outcomes

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): CES1 : Measurement of the vascularisation parameters of the suspected torsional ovary and the contralateral ovary if available: signal intensity and perfusion kinetics. CES 2 : Measurement of signal intensities to evaluate sensitivities and specificities of contrast ultrasound and 2D Doppler ultrasound. CES3 : Comparison of ovarian vascularization parameters with the degree of adnexal torsion. The degree of torsion is defined by the number of turns (number of rotations around the axis) detected during surgery for detorsion under laparoscopy. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: CES1 : Day 0 (D0) CES2 : Day 0 (D0) CES3 : Day 0 (D0)

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess the diagnostic performance of contrast-enhanced ultrasound for the diagnosis of adnexal torsion in women with suspected adnexal torsion.;Secondary Objective: OS1: To describe the vascularization parameters of the ovaries in contrast-enhanced ultrasound. OS2: To compare the diagnostic performance of contrast-enhanced ultrasound and 2D Doppler Ultrasound for the detection of adnexal torsion. OS3: To describe the vascular parameters of the ovary according to the degree of adnexal torsion.;Primary end point(s): "Measurement of signal intensity to assess the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of ultrasound with contrast agent for the detection of adnexal torsion, in women adnexal torsion suspected, with ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristics) curves. The presence or not of adnexal torsion is confirmed during surgery (or diagnostic and therapeutic laparoscopy or laparotomy = reference method)." ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Day 0 (D0)
