Systematic, noninvasive endometriosis diagnosis in transvaginal sonography by the Swiss Society of Ultrasound in Medicine
This paper introduces a systematic, checklist-based transvaginal sonography method for assessing endometriosis in the female pelvis, using the White Sliding Line to evaluate mobility and morphology across compartments.

This paper presents a new systematic, checklist-based transvaginal sonography framework for assessing endometriosis in the female true pelvis, emphasizing practical skills teaching and grounding the approach in prior consensus (including the 2016 IDEA Consensus and later developments). The method centers on the White Sliding Line (WSL), which is used to divide the pelvis into five compartments and prompts targeted checks for endometriosis signs of mobility and morphology. A major caveat is that the paper describes the assessment scheme and its teaching structure rather than providing diagnostic performance data in the provided text. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it develops and systematizes a noninvasive transvaginal ultrasound checklist for identifying endometriosis signs.
