The provided text does not contain the body of a research paper but rather an anti-bot verification message from a website administrator. It explains that the site uses Anubis, a Proof-of-Work scheme similar to Hashcash, to protect against aggressive AI scraping by increasing the computational cost for bots. The message notes that this is a temporary solution while fingerprinting technologies are developed and instructs users to disable browser plugins like JShelter that might interfere with JavaScript execution. The paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Abstract

Background: MRI diagnostics are important for adenomyosis, especially in cases with inconclusive ultrasound. This study assessed the potential of MRI-based radiomics as a novel tool for differentiating between uteri with and without adenomyosis. Methods: This retrospective proof-of-principle single-center study included nine patients with and six patients without adenomyosis. All patients had preoperative T2w MR images and histological findings served as the reference standard. The uterus of each patient was segmented in 3D using dedicated software, and 884 radiomics features were extracted. After dimension reduction and feature selection, the diagnostic yield of individual and combined features implemented in the machine learning models were assessed by means of receiver operating characteristics analyses. Results: Eleven relevant radiomics features were identified. The diagnostic performance of individual features in differentiating adenomyosis from the control group was high, with areas under the curve (AUCs) ranging from 0.78 to 0.98. The performance of ML models incorporating several features was excellent, with AUC scores of 1 and an area under the precision-recall curve of 0.4. Conclusions: The set of radiomics features derived from routine T2w MRI enabled accurate differentiation of uteri with adenomyosis. Radiomics could enhance diagnosis and furthermore serve as an imaging biomarker to aid in personalizing therapies and monitoring treatment responses.

Making sure you're not a bot! Loading... You are seeing this because the administrator of this website has set up Anubis to protect the server against the scourge of AI companies aggressively scraping websites. This can and does cause downtime for the websites, which makes their resources inaccessible for everyone. Anubis is a compromise. Anubis uses a Proof-of-Work scheme in the vein of Hashcash, a proposed proof-of-work scheme for reducing email spam. The idea is that at individual scales the additional load is ignorable, but at mass scraper levels it adds up and makes scraping much more expensive. Ultimately, this is a placeholder solution so that more time can be spent on fingerprinting and identifying headless browsers (EG: via how they do font rendering) so that the challenge proof of work page doesn't need to be presented to users that are much more likely to be legitimate. Please note that Anubis requires the use of modern JavaScript features that plugins like JShelter will disable. Please disable JShelter or other such plugins for this domain.
