Endometriosis affects 1 in 9 women and those assigned female at birth. However, it takes 6.4 years to diagnose using the conventional standard of laparoscopy. Noninvasive imaging enables a timelier diagnosis, reducing diagnostic delay as we…

Mental health symptoms and pain symptoms often coincide in chronic disease. People with endometriosis been shown to have higher incidences of mental health symptoms over people with chronic pain alone. The degree and nature of the relation …
Transvaginal ultrasound is highly effective for diagnosing gynecological conditions like deep endometriosis, uterine pathologies, and evaluating adnexal masses. This study aims to emphasise the role of transvaginal ultrasound in directing s…
Abstract Study question Can we improve the diagnostic accuracy of the detection of POD obliteration in endometriosis magnetic resonance imaging, by leveraging results from unpaired eTVUS data sets? Summary answer We illustrate effective mul…
Social media platforms are used for support and as resources by people from the endometriosis community who are seeking advice about diagnosis, education, and disease management. However, little is known about the scientific accuracy of inf…
Aim: Deep endometriosis (DE) is defined as infiltrating lesions greater than 5 mm in depth and is one of the more severe forms of endometriosis. The surgical management of DE infiltrating the bowel is complex and controversial. The primary …
Background and Aims: Currently, it takes an average of 6.4 years to obtain a diagnosis for endometriosis. To address this delay, the IMAGENDO project combines ultrasounds (eTVUS) and Magnetic Resonance Images (eMRI) using Artificial Intelli…
Background and Aims: Numerous endometriosis treatments exist, ranging from surgical to traditional medications to complementary and alternative medicines (CAMs). The ranking of treatments across management categories remains unknown. To add…
Preoperative sonographic staging in patients with suspected parametrial endometriosis is essential to plan surgical intervention and anticipate the need for a multidisciplinary approach, and thus optimize surgical outcome. The results of a …
PURPOSE: The anatomical distribution of deep endometriosis (DE) is essential in treating patients with symptoms associated with the disease. There is an evidence gap in correlating clinical features and symptoms with disease patterns. The s…
Typically, we think of the endometriosis patient as being symptomatic and in the fertile age bracket but we are largely ignoring a group of patients who remain undiagnosed suffering from unexplained pelvic pain and infertility. These are th…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: Externally validate the American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists (AAGL) staging system against surgical complexity and compare diagnostic accuracy with revised American Society for Reproductive Medicine (rASRM) st…
Endometriosis affects 1 in 9 women, taking 6.4 years to diagnose using conventional laparoscopy. Non-invasive imaging enables timelier diagnosis, reducing diagnostic delay, risk and expense of surgery. This review updates literature explori…
BACKGROUND: In the most severe stage of endometriosis, Stage IV, intestinal involvement is common. The true prevalence of endometriotic disease of the appendix in this population is not well described. A macroscopically normal looking appen…
Endometriosis has been described by many different theories of pathogenesis over the years. It is now also appreciated to be a state of chronic inflammation, and the role of immune dysfunction in its development has been proven. There is in…
BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic reverse submucosal dissection (LRSD) is a standardised surgical technique for removal of rectosigmoid endometriosis which optimises the anatomical dissection plane for excision of endometriotic nodules. AIM: This c…
