Magnetic Resonance Imaging Manifestations and Classification of Adenomyosis
This chapter describes the MRI manifestations, classification, and relevant technology for diagnosing, typing, and monitoring uterine adenomyosis.

This paper/chapter reviews how magnetic resonance imaging is used to diagnose, subtype (type/“typing”), and monitor treatment response in uterine adenomyosis, focusing on basic MRI manifestations and the features of each adenomyosis subtype, alongside relevant MRI technologies and emerging directions. It emphasizes MRI advantages such as clear imaging, operator-independent characteristics, and multi-parameter, multi-planar techniques, and notes increasing clinical adoption alongside wider MRI availability and lower scanning costs. A major caveat is that the piece is descriptive/educational rather than presenting new primary study results, and it does not provide explicit comparative accuracy estimates within the chapter text provided. Relevance to endometriosis: it explicitly cites prior work examining the relationship between MRI appearances of adenomyosis and endometriosis phenotypes, though its main focus is adenomyosis MRI manifestations and classification. This paper is centrally about adenomyosis — it summarizes MRI manifestations and classification of adenomyosis subtypes.
