Introduction: Adenomyosis is a prevalent gynecological disorder among women with no specified causes. It is characterized by non-specific symptoms, and can present itself as abnormal uterine bleeding, abdominal pain, menstrual disorders. Th…

Endometriosis is a common gynaecological condition of unknown aetiology that primarily affects women of reproductive age. The accepted first-line imaging modality is pelvic ultrasound. However, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasing…

The radiologic and pathologic features of three cases of adenomyotic cysts are presented. Two cases were subserosal and one was intramyometrial. All three cases had cystic spaces filled with hyperintense fluid on T1-weighted images, which w…

Abstract A total of 206 nongravid patients with various gynecologic problems underwent pelvic magnetic resonance (MR) examinations that included both sagittal T2‐weighted and contrast agent–enhanced T1‐weighted images. MR images were retros…

The value of 1.5-T magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in diagnosing endometrial cysts and differentiating them from other gynecologic masses was prospectively evaluated in 374 female patients with clinically suspected adnexal masses. A suggest…

The potential of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in differentiation of adenomyosis from leiomyoma was evaluated in 93 patients who had a palpable enlarged uterus that was suspect for leiomyoma or adenomyosis. In all cases, MR images were co…

Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging characteristics of adenomyosis were studied in eight women (aged 37-49 years) who underwent hysterectomy, and detailed radiologic/pathologic correlation was conducted in all cases. Adenomyosis produced diffus…

Magnetic resonance (MR) images of 15 cases of ovarian endometrial cyst were reviewed. With a high-field-strength (1.5-T) MR imager, T1- and T2-weighted images were obtained in axial and sagittal planes, with 5-mm section thickness. MR findi…
