ABSTRACT: Endometriosis is a common yet under-recognised chronic disease with one in nine (more than 830,000) women and those assigned female at birth diagnosed with endometriosis by the age of 44 years in Australia. In 2018, Australia was …
OBJECTIVES: To describe the use and perceived effectiveness of medical, surgical, and alternative therapies (e.g., diet, exercise, heat, cannabis, etc.) in managing endometriosis-associated pain in Canadians. METHODS: A cross-sectional onl…
Endometriosis is a benign disease that can cause pain and infertility in women. Debate exists over how endometriosis should best be diagnosed. On one hand, endometriosis can be diagnosed by directly examining pelvic anatomy via a surgical p…
Endometriosis is a chronic systemic disease that can cause pain, infertility and reduced quality of life. Diagnosing endometriosis remains challenging, which yields diagnostic delays for patients. Research on diagnostic test accuracy in end…
Objectives: To determine the impact of the diagnostic test method (clinical, diagnostic imaging, or diagnostic laparoscopy) of endometriosis on the individual’s sense of control over their disease and their perceived access to social suppor…
ABSTRACT Objective To compare the preoperative detection of endometriosis using transvaginal sonography (TVS) supplemented by transabdominal sonography (TAS) with surgical assessment of disease, using the #Enzian classification for endometr…
Endometriosis is a common gynecological condition characterized by estrogen dependence, chronic pelvic pain, infertility, and diagnostic delay of between 5.4 and 12 years. Despite extensive study, no biomarker, either alone or in combinatio…
OBJECTIVE: To assess the general population's knowledge regarding the utility and availability of tools to diagnosis endometriosis, with a focus on ultrasound. DESIGN: An international cross-sectional online survey study was performed betwe…

Extrapelvic endometriosis, although rare, can present in the musculoskeletal system of reproductive-age women and cause significant pain and morbidity. The pathophysiology of this disease is not well understood. In this study, we described …
In endometriosis, it is becoming increasingly clear how important imaging is to advancing the potential to provide an accurate non-invasive diagnosis1, 2, understanding severity preoperatively3, triaging patients to an appropriately trained…
OBJECTIVES: Pouch of Douglas (POD) obliteration is a severe consequence of inflammation in the pelvis, often seen in patients with endometriosis. The sliding sign is a dynamic transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) test that can diagnose POD obliter…
We aim to first systematically review and perform a meta-analysis of the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and, second, to evaluate the accuracy of various sonographic diagnostic crit…
Operative laparoscopy has been regarded as a viable and evidence-based option for endometriosis-related infertility. However, not all studies support this conclusion and the recent synthesis of high-quality randomised controlled trials (RCT…
STUDY QUESTION: Is there an ideal imaging modality for the detection of uterosacral ligaments/torus uterinus (USL), rectovaginal septum (RVS) and vaginal deep endometriosis (DE) in women with a clinical history of endometriosis? SUMMARY AN…
The current approach to treating endometriosis is often inadequate or intolerable for many patients. Until more effective therapies are available, we should aim to maximize the effectiveness of our current options. Optimization may be possi…
OBJECTIVES: To review the accuracy of different imaging modalities for the detection of rectosigmoid deep endometriosis (DE) in women with clinical suspicion of endometriosis, and to determine the optimal modality. METHODS: A search was co…
