Die anogenitale Distanz (AGD) im MRT bei nicht-voroperierten Patientinnen korreliert nicht mit der anschließenden chirurgischen Diagnose einer Endometriose
This study investigated the correlation between MRI measurements of anogenital distance in non-preoperative patients and subsequent surgical diagnoses of endometriosis, finding no significant correlation.

This study evaluated whether the anogenital distance measured by magnetic resonance imaging serves as a predictive biomarker for surgically confirmed endometriosis. Researchers analyzed data from 127 patients who underwent preoperative MRI, assessing interobserver reliability and comparing anogenital distance measurements between those with and without various forms of endometriosis. The results demonstrated high to excellent measurement reliability but revealed no statistically significant differences in anogenital distance across patient groups with deep infiltrating, peritoneal, or ovarian endometriosis. Consequently, the authors concluded that this metric lacks utility as a diagnostic tool for suspected endometriosis in this clinical context. Relevance to endometriosis: This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically investigating the validity of anogenital distance as a non-invasive diagnostic marker for the condition.
