Summary:In 2021, the American College of Radiology (ACR) Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) MRI Committee developed a risk stratification system and lexicon for assessing adnexal lesions using MRI. Like the BI-RADS classification, O-RADS MRI provides a standardized language for communication between radiologists and clinicians. It is essential for radiologists to be familiar with the O-RADS algorithmic approach to avoid misclassifications. Training, like that offered by International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA), is essential to ensure accurate and consistent application of the O-RADS MRI system. Tools such as the O-RADS MRI calculator aim to ensure an algorithmic approach. This review highlights the key teaching points, pearls, and pitfalls when using the O-RADS MRI risk stratification system. Critical relevance statement  This article highlights the pearls and pitfalls of using the O-RADS MRI scoring system in clinical practice. Key points • Solid tissue is described as displaying post- contrast enhancement. • Endosalpingeal folds, fimbriated end of the tube, smooth wall, or septa are not solid tissue. • Low-risk TIC has no shoulder or plateau. An intermediate-risk TIC has a shoulder and plateau, though the shoulder is less steep compared to outer myometrium. Graphical Abstract
