Exploration of the Relationship between the Thickness of MRI Binding Band and the Therapeutic Effect of High Intensity Focused Ultrasound in Adenomyosis
This study explored the relationship between MRI binding band thickness and high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment outcomes for adenomyosis, finding HIFU improved dysmenorrhea and mild cases responded best.

This study evaluated the efficacy of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for treating dysmenorrhea in 79 patients with adenomyosis and investigated whether MRI junction zone thickness predicts treatment outcomes. Patients were stratified by pain severity, and researchers analyzed changes in Visual Analogue Scale scores and non-perfusion volume ratios at three, six, and twelve months post-treatment against baseline imaging metrics. The results demonstrated that HIFU significantly reduced pain across all groups, with mild cases showing superior improvement compared to moderate or severe cases, yet no significant correlation was found between junction zone thickness and clinical or radiological success. This paper is centrally about adenomyosis — specifically assessing how anatomical MRI features influence the therapeutic response to HIFU ablation.
