Australian endometriosis guidelines recommend transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) as the first-line investigation for endometriosis. Where endometriosis has been surgically treated, there is a risk of recurrent disease and repeat surgery. It …
Endometriosis is a widespread gynecological disorder causing severe pain and infertility, with diagnosis currently relying on slow, costly, and risky laparoscopy. This highlights the critical need for non-invasive imaging diagnostics …
Adenomyosis is increasingly recognized in young women and frequently coexists with endometriosis, suggesting shared pathogenic mechanisms. Delayed recognition of symptoms may contribute to disease progression, while discrepancies between preoperative imaging …
Transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) is widely used for diagnosing ovarian endometriosis but remains limited by significant operator dependency. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound-based artificial intelligence …
This study aims to propose a novel, reproducible transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) measurement-anterior-posterior wall thickness of the uterine isthmus ratio (APTUIR)-and to construct a nomogram model integrating this parameter with other …
To evaluate whether virtual reality (VR) glasses reduce pain perception during transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) in women with endometriosis.
Background/Objectives: Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is defined as pelvic pain lasting longer than six months and is a common yet often overlooked condition, affecting over 40% of women worldwide and …
Endometriosis and adenomyosis are prevalent chronic inflammatory conditions that significantly impact reproductive-age women, leading to debilitating symptoms such as pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, and infertility. Endometriosis is characterized by ectopic endometrial …
Background/Objectives: The assessment of endometriosis (EMS)-associated pain is important, but only very few studies address the potential use of questionnaires for non-invasive prediction of the disease. Methods: In a prospective …
Objectives: This study aimed to systematically compare the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) for deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and to evaluate their impact on …
