OBJECTIVE: To correlate the sonographic severity of adenomyosis, assessed with real-time ultrasound and a novel semi-quantified method (XI-VOCAL counting and categories) with adenomyosis-associated symptoms. METHODS: This observational stu…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the diagnostic value of the nine Morphological Uterus Sonographic Assessment (MUSA)-defined ultrasonographic features for adenomyosis and develop an ultrasound scoring system to improve diagnostic accuracy. METHODS: …

Data sharing is not applicable to this article as no datasets were generated or analyzed during the current study. Figure S1. Ultrasound images of the pelvis. (A) The uterus is enlarged, measuring approximately 59 × 57 × 60 mm, with heterog…

OBJECTIVES: To compare the application value of 4-dimensional hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography (4D-HyCoSy) and x-ray hysterosalpingography (HSG) in intrauterine insemination (IUI) patients. METHODS: In this retrospective study, a total …

OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting approximately 5%-10% of reproductive-aged women. Transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) is increasingly used to diagnose deep-infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). This study assess…

OBJECTIVES: To assess the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound using the sliding sign for detecting pelvic adhesions and its correlation with operative time in laparoscopic surgery for benign gynecologic conditions. METHODS: A pr…

OBJECTIVES: Adenomyosis is challenging to diagnose with transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and requires operator expertise to recognize its sonographic features; however, little is known about the learning curve for trainees. This study aimed t…

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the value of radiomics based on ultrasound in differentiating uterine fibroids (UFs) and uterine adenomyomas (AMs) and construct a noninvasive tool for this differentiation. METHODS: The clinical data and ultrasound…

OBJECTIVES: Pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS) is a prevalent but underdiagnosed cause of chronic pelvic pain. Venography remains the diagnostic reference, yet its invasiveness limits routine use. This study evaluated standardized duplex ultr…

OBJECTIVES: Transvaginal strain elastography (SE) has emerged as a complementary technique to transvaginal ultrasound for deep endometriosis (DE) evaluation by exploiting tissue stiffness between lesions and surrounding structures. However,…

This network meta-analysis aims to identify the best possible combination therapy for individuals suffering from adenomyosis. To identify pertinent research for the network meta-analysis, a comprehensive search was conducted across multiple…

Data sharing not applicable to this article as no datasets were generated or analyzed during the current study.

OBJECTIVE: To examine whether the co-occurrence of endometriosis affects the sonographic features of adenomyosis based on the revised Morphological Uterus Sonographic Assessment (MUSA) criteria. METHODS: This prospective cohort study utili…

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of ovarian endometriotic cysts on the efficacy of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in patients with adenomyosis. METHODS: Based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings, patients were categorized…

OBJECTIVES: The reported prevalence of adenomyosis ranges widely due to different study populations, diagnostic tests and criteria. Categorizing the severity of disease may prove important. This study aims to develop a semi-quantifiable son…

Borderline ovarian tumors, which are of epithelial origin, exhibit malignant histological features without stromal invasion. They differ from invasive ovarian carcinomas since often diagnosed in younger patients, at an early stage, and have…

American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) is a multidisciplinary association dedicated to advancing the safe and effective use of ultrasound in medicine through professional and public education, research, development of clinical …

OBJECTIVES: To compare the accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) with laparoscopy in detecting and characterizing uterosacral ligament (USL) nodules of deep infiltrative endometriosis (DIE) between patients with and without pouch of Do…

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to analyze the effect of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) on different types of adenomyosis (AM) based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) classification. METHODS: A total of 206 AM patients who underwent HIFU b…

Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) is a subperitoneal intrusion of endometrial tissue. Resulting endometrial nodules may develop on the uterosacral ligament, urinary tract, rectovaginal, and retrocervical areas, and less commonly in the …

PURPOSE: This study aims to investigate and compare quantitative factors of the cesarean scar defect (CSD) in symptomatic patients with and without uterine adenomyosis. METHOD: This study was conducted as a case-control study. Patients who…
