Ultrasound strain sonoelastography assesses tissue stiffness, adding supplemental information to real time dynamic transvaginal ultrasound. Stiffness shows as a colour quantitative elastogram superimposed on a B-mode image. It is a well-est…

BackgroundPossible transtubal spillage of malignant cells is a major concern in fluid instillation sonography, as it is in hysteroscopy. This study aims to compare the transtubal flow of gel and saline and validate the clinical hypothesis t…

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the intra- and inter-rater agreement for myometrial lesions using Morphologic Uterus Sonographic Assessment terminology. METHODS: Thirteen raters with high (n = 6) or medium experience (n = 7) assessed 30 3-dimensio…

This report describes a case of a uterine cystic myometrial lesion in a 16-year-old adolescent girl presenting with pelvic pain and severe progressively worsening dysmenorrhoea. Patient's symptoms, ultrasound and MRI were suggestive of juve…

There are many diagnostic methods to assist clinicians in assessing adnexal masses on ultrasound. After suggesting a standardized terminology and measurement technique to evaluate adnexal masses, the International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IO…

OBJECTIVE: To describe the clinical and ultrasound characteristics of ovarian pure endometrioid carcinomas. METHODS: This was a retrospective multicenter study of patients with a histological diagnosis of pure endometrioid carcinoma. We ide…

To evaluate intra- and interobserver agreement in the reporting of ultrasonographic features associated with ill-defined lesions using the Morphological Uterus Sonographic Assessment (MUSA) terms. Multicentre clinical study, using three-dim…
