MRI has emerged for several years as the imaging examination of second-line indications in the majority of female pelvic imaging, after ultrasonography. Recent technical advances have allowed the widespread use of new MRI sequences, allowin…

Many atypical locations for deep endometriosis exist that are not well known to both the radiologist and gynecologist. This work explores these unusual localizations, which we have arbitrarily grouped under the term "anterior endometriosis"…

PurposeProspective monocentric study to determine the feasibility, tolerability and diagnostic value of intravaginal contrast to assess female pelvic anatomy on MRI.Materials and methodsForty-nine consecutive women referred for MRI evaluati…

ObjectiveTo study the sensitivity of MRI performed utilising vaginal and rectal opacification with ultrasound gel in the detection of deep pelvic endometriosis.Material and methodsThis was a prospective monocentric study. All patients evalu…
