OS ACHADOS DA ENDOMETRIOSE INFILTRATIVA PÉLVICA NA RESSONÂNCIA MAGNÉTICA: UMA REVISÃO SOBRE OS ASPECTOS DIAGNÓSTICOS DA ENDOMETRIOSE PROFUNDA
This review details pelvic infiltrating endometriosis MRI findings, highlighting deep nodules and indirect signs to improve surgical planning through standardized anatomical compartment assessment.

This review article examines the diagnostic imaging findings of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It highlights that MRI is a crucial tool for detecting and mapping lesions that penetrate more than 5 mm below the peritoneum, particularly in areas such as the uterosacral ligaments, rectovaginal septum, and bowel wall. The paper details specific radiological signs, including T2-hypointense nodules with or without hemorrhagic components, obliteration of the Douglas pouch, and ligamentous thickening, while emphasizing the value of standardized anatomical compartment approaches and scoring systems like dPEI for surgical planning. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically the diagnosis and characterization of deep infiltrating endometriosis via MRI.
