Endometriosis is a gynecologic disorder characterized by endometrial-like tissue in ectopic locations, outside of the uterine cavity. In the adolescent population, the diagnosis of endometriosis is often overlooked as a cause of pelvic pain…

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Endometriosis affects 5-10% of women of reproductive age. Despite its prevalence, diagnosing endometriosis through imaging remains challenging. Advances in deep learning (DL) are revolutionizing the diagnosis and man…

Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic presence of endometrial tissue, often resulting in pelvic pain, infertility, and decreased quality of life. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) plays a crucial role…

Artificial intelligence (AI) may have the potential to improve existing diagnostic challenges in endometriosis imaging. To better direct future research, this descriptive review summarizes the general landscape of AI applications in endomet…

BACKGROUND: In recent years, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques into medical imaging has shown great potential to transform the diagnostic process. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of current stat…

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic value of amide proton transfer-weighted (APTw) imaging in distinguishing cystic or predominantly cystic ovarian lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 49 patients underwent APTw imaging at 3T…

PURPOSE: To determine whether presence of endometriomas on routine pelvic ultrasound (US) can predict presence of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DE) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and correlate endometrioma size with the presence of …

Endometriosis, a chronic and multifocal inflammatory condition with a substantial estrogen-dependent component, is often linked to infertility. Some patients with endometriosis may require surgical intervention or assisted reproductive tech…

Endometriosis is a common disease, affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age. Several intersecting guidelines and consensus statements provide information on imaging diagnosis and surveillance strategies for endometriomas. SR…

Endometriosis is a common gynecologic disorder with a significant burden of morbidity that is often subject to substantial diagnostic delay. While transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) is the first-line imaging tool for symptoms like chronic pelvi…

Endometriosis presents a common and significant health burden affecting approximately 1 in 10 reproductive age patients who are assigned female at birth. Recently guidelines have begun shifting away from laparoscopy as the first-line diagno…

Ovarian endometriotic cysts are associated with an increased risk of clear cell and endometrioid carcinomas, as well as borderline neoplasms. Although contrast-enhancing nodules on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) suggest malignancy, benign…

Endometriosis is a common condition primarily impacting women of childbearing age. Despite increasing awareness that endometriosis can be diagnosed non-invasively with the correct imaging techniques, there exists a significant delay in diag…

Endometriosis is a common cause of subfertility and infertility through myriad mechanisms. Imaging of endometriosis is critical for its diagnosis, characterization, and treatment. Understanding its imaging appearance, surgical management, a…

The uterine isthmus, the narrowest portion of the uterus, plays an essential role in female reproductive health and can be the site of several gynecological pathologies. Due to its strategic location, lesions in this region have unique char…

PURPOSE: To investigate the influence of a micro-enema on diagnostic performance, submucosal width, reader confidence, and tumor conspicuity using MRI to stage early rectal cancers (ERC). METHODS: In this single-center study, we consecutiv…

Endometriosis, affecting approximately 10% of reproductive-age women, presents significant diagnostic challenges due to its variable clinical presentation and anatomic distributions. Despite advances in imaging technology, accurate detectio…

BACKGROUND: Rectosigmoid endometriosis (RSE) presents with a diverse array of MRI findings that impact surgical planning. No standardized reporting and data system has been established for RSE. PURPOSE: We propose a novel MRI scoring syste…

OBJECTIVE: To assess the advantages of High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) in the treatment of uterine leiomyomas and adenomyosis. METHODS: Patients with uterine leiomyomas (435 cases) and adenomyosis (78 cases) treated in our hospita…

Endometriosis is a chronic systemic disease characterized by the presence of endometrium-like glands and/or stroma outside the uterus, usually with an associated inflammatory process. It affects around 5-10% of women worldwide, with chronic…

Endometriosis is the presence of hormonally sensitive endometrium-like tissue outside the uterus. It is a common condition, affecting 10% of reproductive-age people assigned as female at birth. Although usually occurring in the pelvis, it c…

Adenomyosis is a common, estrogen-dependent condition where endometrial tissue grows within the myometrium, often accompanied by smooth muscle hypertrophy. Initially thought to represent a condition primarily seen in multiparas with menorrh…

OBJECTIVE(S): This study aims to assess the diagnostic accuracy of the revised Morphologic Uterus Sonographic Assessment (MUSA) criteria for adenomyosis. METHODS: Retrospective review on 96 patients who underwent hysterectomy following ult…
