Background The #Enzian classification standardizes endometriosis reporting but requires specialized training. This study evaluated whether large language models (LLMs) can accurately extract #Enzian scores from MRI reports to support novice…

The Canadian Association of Radiologists (CAR) Endometriosis Working Group was tasked with providing guidance and benchmarks to ensure the quality of technique and interpretation for advanced imaging modalities associated with diagnosing en…

Introduction: Transvaginal sonography is the first-line imaging technique to diagnose endometriosis, but magnetic resonance imaging is more accurate in staging the extent of lesions, especially for deep pelvic endometriosis. The revised Ame…

Purpose of Review: The purpose of this review is to (i) summarize the current literature regarding the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosing adenomyosis, (ii) examine how to integrate MRI phenotypes with clinical symptomato…

MRI plays an important role as a secondary test or problem-solving modality in the evaluation of adnexal lesions depicted at US. MRI has increased specificity compared with US, decreasing the number of false-positive diagnoses for malignanc…

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an effective technique for the diagnosis and preoperative staging of deep infiltrative endometriosis (DIE). The usefulness of MRI sequences susceptible to chronic blood degradation products, such as T2*-w…

OBJECTIVE: To determine the accuracy of interpretation of a non-contrast MRI protocol in characterizing adnexal masses. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Two hundred ninety-one patients (350 adnexal masses) who underwent gynecological MRI at our inst…

The most common known causes of female infertility are male factor (26%), ovulatory failure (21%), and tubal damage (14%), while in 28% a couple's infertility remains unexplained. Female-specific causes of infertility include deterioration …

PURPOSE: To investigate magnetic resonance (MR) volumetry of endometrial tumors and its association with deep myometrial invasion, tumor grade, and lymphovascular invasion and to assess the value of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) hist…

PURPOSE: To determine the optimal single shot fast spin echo (SSFSE) technique by varying interval between image acquisitions for cine MRI of uterine peristalsis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: MRI was performed in 13 premenopausal women (4 normal…

Cystic disease in the female pelvis is common. The majority of cystic pelvic masses originate in the ovary, and they can range from simple, functional cysts to malignant ovarian tumors. Mimics of ovarian cystic masses include peritoneal inc…

Leiomyomas and adenomyosis are common benign myometrial conditions. Although their symptoms overlap, traditional treatment of these two entities differs; thus, making the correct diagnosis is critical. Specifically, uterine-conserving thera…

The role of imaging is to confirm the diagnosis of uterine leiomyoma and to differentiate leiomyomas from other causes of uterine enlargement or pelvic masses such as ovarian or endometrial based masses, adenomyosis, serosal implants and ly…

PURPOSE: To evaluate the accuracy of ultrasonographic (US) features of adenomyosis by correlating them with histologic findings and to assess inter- and intraobserver agreement. MATERIALS AND METHODS: US was performed and videotaped in 102…

Uterine adenomyosis is a common gynecologic condition that is characterized by the presence of heterotopic endometrial glands and stroma in the myometrium with adjacent smooth muscle hyperplasia. The histopathologic features of adenomyosis …

This review focuses on non-invasive imaging techniques that have proven useful in diagnosing adenomyosis, including hysterosalpingography, transabdominal and endovaginal ultrasound, as well as magnetic resonance imaging. An understanding of…

PURPOSE: To compare the accuracy of endovaginal ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in the diagnosis of adenomyosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The authors prospectively studied 119 consecutive patients undergoing hysterectomy.…

PURPOSE: To determine the accuracy of endovaginal ultrasound (US) in the diagnosis of uterine adenomyosis and to evaluate the frequency of observed sonographic criteria. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Endovaginal US was performed in 100 consecutiv…
