article 1996
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/oxfordjournals.humrep.a019301

We evaluated the usefulness of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for assessing the response of patients with endometriomas to medical therapy. MRI was performed before and after treatment in 20 consecutive patients with at least one endometr…

article 1993
Radiology ·doi:10.1148/radiology.188.2.8327693

Fat-saturation magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for detection and characterization of pelvic endometriosis was prospectively investigated in 35 women with a clinical diagnosis of the disease. Large endometrioma was diagnosed when the lesion …

article 1992
Fertility and Sterility ·doi:10.1016/s0015-0282(16)55461-2

Preoperative MRI using fat-saturation technique was performed in a patient with endometriosis. Endometrial implants as small as 3 mm were accurately diagnosed by MRI. The fat-saturation technique is useful for diagnosing small endometrioma.
