Due to the growing use of cross-sectional imaging in emergency departments, acute gynaecologic disorders are increasingly diagnosed on urgent multidetector computed tomography (CT) studies, often requested under alternative presumptive diag…

OBJECTIVE: We illustrate the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of endometriosis. BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic gynaecological condition affecting women of reproductive age and may cause pelvic pain and infertility. It is c…

OBJECTIVE: We propose a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) guided approach to differential diagnosis of ovarian tumours based on morphological appearance. BACKGROUND: Characterization of ovarian lesions is of great importance in order to pla…

OBJECTIVE: We illustrate the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of non-neoplastic tubaric conditions. BACKGROUND: A variety of pathologic non-neoplastic conditions may affect the fallopian tubes. Knowledge of their imaging appearanc…

PURPOSE: This study was undertaken to prospectively determine the diagnostic capabilities of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in detecting myometrial and cervical invasion and lymph node involvement in endometrial carcinoma and to identify t…
