This paper is an integrative literature review describing how endometriosis imaging diagnosis is performed, focusing on the challenges involved in obtaining the exam and the preparation needed. It reports that magnetic resonance imaging is superior for diagnosing endometriosis, particularly for deep endometriosis, with emphasis on fat-saturation protocols, and notes that despite clear diagnostic benefits, MRI remains relatively inaccessible due to high cost, leading to its use as a second-choice option. The primary limitation is that it synthesizes published literature rather than presenting new original diagnostic performance data. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically, it reviews the role of MRI in endometriosis diagnosis and the practical issues of performing MRI-based imaging.
