Is using the 'Risk of malignancy' index useful

Hi,
I have seen something about Doctors using the RMI equation to work out your chances of a tumor being malignant. I am fretting as mine works out at 327 and I have read that anything over 200 is likely to be cancer. Can anyone offer any info?
Thanks
Kate

Perhaps someone on the Ovarian Cancer forum would know more? You may want to join that community as well to ask questions.
I am not familiar with how medical approvals work in the UK. Perhaps your doctor is just trying to get documentation that will get you approved for surgery. He/she is just trying to make sure you get attention. That is my take on it.
I will be thinking positive thoughts for you. Please keep us informed. I do want to hear that this all turns out to be benign.
I will let you know how I get on.
