Autoimmune and inflammatory rheumatic diseases (RDs) are more prevalent in women and often affect gynecological health. Particularly, heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) and dysmenorrhea are more common in patients with RD. …
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 …
Delays in the diagnosis of endometriosis in sub Saharan Africa persist, driven partly by limited access to advanced imaging techniques. Capacity building initiatives focused on ultrasound offer a practical and …
Background: Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) frequently affects the posterior pelvic compartment, where accurate non-invasive imaging is essential for diagnosis and surgical planning. Aim: This systematic review evaluates the diagnostic performance …
To assess the impact of complex disease states, including pouch of Douglas (POD) obliteration and deep endometriosis (DE) of the bowel, on the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) for …
Accurate diagnosis of pathology from ultrasound images is reliant upon images of a suitable diagnostic quality being acquired. This study aimed to create a novel machine learning model to automatically …
Adenomyosis is challenging to diagnose with transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and requires operator expertise to recognize its sonographic features; however, little is known about the learning curve for trainees. This study …
To perform an updated meta-analysis evaluating the diagnostic performance of transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) for detecting lateral parametrial involvement in women with suspected deep pelvic endometriosis.
To assess the intermodality agreement between transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the evaluation of deep pelvic endometriosis (DE), using a compartment-based framework that includes both classical …
Adenomyosis often coexists with endometriosis, which primarily involves the ovary and can lead to endometriosis‑associated ovarian cancers, most commonly endometrioid and clear‑cell carcinomas. Ovarian squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) arising in …
