OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the performance of transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) using the International Deep Endometriosis Analysis (IDEA) terminology in the detection of deep endometriosis (DE). DESIGN: International multicenter prospective diagn…
review
2025
BACKGROUND: Over the past decade, transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) has revolutionized the diagnosis of deep endometriosis. We can now accurately describe and evaluate lesions in multiple compartments of the pelvis, increasing diagnostic capac…

meta-analysis
2022
BACKGROUND: Transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used for the clinical diagnosis of adenomyosis. OBJECTIVES: To compare the diagnostic accuracy of TVS and MRI for the diagnosis of adenomyosis. SEARCH STRA…

Two main theories have been proposed to explain the origin of adenomyosis. The first theory postulated that adenomyosis results from invagination of the endometrial basalis into the myometrium as a repair mechanism after injury. Alternative…
