This scoring method yield much better results than individual parameters. Methods: Present study conducted between July 2017 to June 2019.Parameter like menopausal status, ultrasoundfeatures, and serum level of tumor marker like CA-125 for calculating RMI 3. Then RMI was compared with the histopathological report which was taken as gold standard. Results: RMI 3 had a sensitivity of 100%, a specificity of 91.67%, a positive predictive value of 97.50% and negative predictive value of 100%. Conclusions: This scoring system due to its simplicity and applicability can be used by the general gynaecologists at the periphery to refer suspected ovarian cancer to oncologicalcenters and thereby improving the survival and prognosis of women undergoing surgery for ovarian tumors.&#13;
