This PhD thesis from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam investigates uterine artery embolization as a treatment for symptomatic fibroids and adenomyosis, supervised by Judith Huirne and Wouter Hehenkamp. The work includes associated peer-reviewed articles published in 2019, such as an editorial on sonographic classification systems for diagnosing adenomyosis and a study evaluating the efficacy and safety of embolization for cervical leiomyomata. These components collectively address diagnostic imaging standards and clinical outcomes for interventional radiology procedures targeting benign uterine conditions. Relevance to endometriosis: listed as one indication for uterine artery embolization, though the paper's main focus is adenomyosis and uterine fibroids.
