• The high contrast resolution provided by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) compared to all other modalities allows the interpreting radiologist to make a specific diagnosis for many common and uncommon findings. In some cases, the diagnosis can be so certain that there is no differential diagnosis. In this article, we review the most classically recognized findings when interpreting MRI of the pelvis including the following: Ovaries: Simple cyst, hemorrhagic cyst, corpus luteum, dermoid, fibroma/fibrothecoma. Uterus: C-section scar, adenomyosis, endometriosis, fibroid, congenital uterine anomalies. Cervix: nabothian cyst, cervical cancer. Vagina/Vulva: Gardener’s duct cyst, Bartholin’s gland cyst. Urethra: skene gland cyst, urethral diverticulum. Prostate: utricle cyst, Mullerian duct cyst, benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostate cancer.
