Abstract

Although laparoscopy has classically been defined as the gold standard for diagnosis of endometriosis, there is now a strong recommendation for the use of advanced imaging in diagnosing the disease. In addition to playing a crucial role in the diagnosis of endometriosis, advanced imaging is also essential for assisting gynaecologic surgeons in planning the surgical management of complex cases of deep endometriosis. This case demonstrates a metaverse of high-level imaging modalities, including advanced ultrasound and magnetic resonance, which were further enhanced with medical virtual reality and used for the assessment of a patient seen in an outpatient tertiary care gynaecology clinic.
