Abstract: In order to investigate the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features and diagnosis effect in invasive hydatidiform mole (IHM), 36 patients with suspected IHM were examined by MRI plain scan and dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) in this study. The MRI features of IHM were observed, as well as the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of MRI in the diagnosis of IHM. The results showed that the MRI features of IHM are characteristic. The sensitivity of MRI in the diagnosis of IHM was 75.00%, the specificity was 83.33%, and the accuracy was 77.78%, respectively. The main type of time-signal intensity curve (TIC) in IHM group was type Ⅰ, the main type of TIC in benign group was type Ⅲ and Ⅳ, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Therefore, MRI can clearly show the condition of uterine cavity and invasion degree of myometrium. MRI plain scan combined with DCE can improve the accuracy in the diagnosis of IHM.
