Area of Science:

  • Gynecology and Reproductive Medicine
  • Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

  • Menometrorrhagia, or abnormal uterine bleeding, is a key indicator of various endometrial pathologies.
  • These pathologies include benign conditions like polyps and hypertrophy, malignant cancers, and adjacent issues in the myometrium or ovaries.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the diagnostic value of different imaging modalities for endometrial pathologies.
  • To correlate imaging findings with clinical symptoms for accurate diagnosis.

Main Methods:

  • Review of B-mode and Doppler ultrasonography (abdominal and endovaginal).
  • Assessment of hysterosonography, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, and hysteroscopy.
  • Analysis of symptomatological features associated with endometrial conditions.

Main Results:

  • Imaging techniques offer valuable insights into endometrial pathologies.
  • Specific modalities demonstrate varying strengths in identifying benign, malignant, and neighboring conditions.
  • Symptom correlation aids in pinpointing the exact endometrial pathology.

Conclusions:

  • A comprehensive approach utilizing multiple imaging techniques is crucial for diagnosing endometrial pathologies.
  • Accurate diagnosis through imaging facilitates appropriate management of abnormal uterine bleeding.
