This chapter reviews diagnostic strategies for endometriosis, focusing on clinical symptoms, examinations, imaging, and biological markers, with detailed assessment of transvaginal ultrasonography (TVUS) versus magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It reports that MRI is notably sensitive for detecting subtle pathological changes while TVUS is more specific for anatomical detail, and it emphasizes integrating these modalities with clinical assessment to improve diagnostic accuracy. The chapter also describes decision-making algorithms from prominent French and European societies and discusses how diagnostic strategies can be tailored for adolescents, noting that diagnostic complexity varies across patient populations as a key caveat. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it provides an overview of diagnostic strategies comparing TVUS and MRI and summarizing society algorithms and special considerations for adolescents.
