Core Tip	Transvaginal ultrasonography (TV-US) is the method of choice to evaluate ovarian tumors, but abdominal US enables to detect masses in both upper and lower abdomen, providing useful information when Krukenberg tumor is suspected. Moreover, contrast-enhanced US (CEUS) can be immediately performed to define the microvascularisation of the lesions, and the presence of arterial enhancement followed by wash-out in the venous phase is strongly suspicious of malignancy. US and CEUS can provide key diagnostic elements, supporting clinicians in the first steps of the diagnostic work-up of abdominal and pelvic masses.
