To assess the usefulness of fat-saturated magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in detecting small endometrial implants, 258 pigmented lesions of endometriosis from 80 consecutive patients with histopathologically diagnosed pelvic endometriosis w…
We evaluated the usefulness of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for assessing the response of patients with endometriomas to medical therapy. MRI was performed before and after treatment in 20 consecutive patients with at least one endometr…
OBJECTIVE: To assess the usefulness of fat-saturated magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for detecting small endometrial implants. DESIGN: Prospective evaluation by conventional and fat-saturated MR imaging. SETTING: Shimane Medical Universit…
Preoperative MRI using fat-saturation technique was performed in a patient with endometriosis. Endometrial implants as small as 3 mm were accurately diagnosed by MRI. The fat-saturation technique is useful for diagnosing small endometrioma.
