title: Magnetic resonance imaging of an ovarian mucinous cystadenoma immediately before and after rupture.
abstract: The MRI findings are described in a case of rupture of an ovarian mucinous cystadenoma which occurred during the course of an MR scan. While the rupture was presumed to be spontaneous, possible precipitating factors are discussed.
