This study evaluated comprehensive diagnostic methods for adenomyosis in 59 reproductive-aged and premenopausal patients compared to 20 controls. Researchers utilized three-dimensional ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, hysteroscopy, and histological examination to assess clinical characteristics and uterine morphology. The findings indicated that adenomyosis patients had significantly larger uterine volumes, increased myometrial wall asymmetry, and a junctional zone thickness of at least 12 mm in 62.5% of cases, alongside altered vascularization indices. This paper is centrally about adenomyosis — specifically focusing on the diagnostic utility of modern imaging techniques and histological verification in identifying morphological changes associated with the condition.
