Imaging Studies II: Ultrasonography

IntroductionUltrasonography, or renal ultrasound, is a noninvasive medical imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and surrounding tissues.Indications for Urinary System UltrasonographyUrinary system ultrasonography is indicated in various clinical scenarios, such as:Kidney Stones (Urolithiasis): To detect and monitor the size and presence of kidney or urinary tract stones.Hydronephrosis: To assess the dilation of the renal pelvis and...

Imaging Studies IV: Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Introduction:Magnetic Resonance Imaging, or MRI, can include a specialized imaging technique of the urinary system known as Magnetic Resonance Urography (MRU). This radiation-free technique uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images with the help of a computer. MRU is particularly effective for visualizing fluid-filled structures like the kidneys, ureters, and bladder.Applications of MRI in the Genitourinary SystemKidneys and Ureters: MRI detects tumors, cysts,...
Ultrasonography01:17

Ultrasonography

Ultrasonography is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the body's internal structures. It is a non-invasive and safe procedure that does not involve the use of ionizing radiation, making it widely used in various medical fields. Ultrasonography is used to study heart function, blood flow in the neck or extremities, certain conditions such as gallbladder disease, and fetal growth and development.
During an ultrasonography procedure, a handheld device called a...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging01:24

Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive medical imaging technique based on a phenomenon of nuclear physics discovered in the 1930s, in which matter exposed to magnetic fields and radio waves was found to emit radio signals. In 1970, a physician and researcher named Raymond Damadian noticed that malignant (cancerous) tissue gave off different signals than normal body tissue. He applied for a patent for the first MRI scanning device in clinical use by the early 1980s. The early MRI...

Imaging Studies VI: Voiding Cystourethrography and Cystography

Voiding Cystourethrography (VCUG) and Cystography are specialized radiographic procedures used to examine the structure and function of the bladder and urethra.Voiding Cystourethrography (VCUG)A Voiding Cystourethrogram (VCUG) is a diagnostic imaging procedure that assesses the anatomy and function of the lower urinary tract. It focuses on the bladder, bladder neck, and urethra, helping detect abnormalities such as vesicoureteral reflux (VUR)—the backward or reverse flow of urine into the...

Summary

Sonohysterography can identify adenomyosis, with MRI confirming the diagnosis in 96% of cases. A new sonographic sign, myometrial cracks, may indicate adenomyosis.

Area of Science:

  • Gynecologic imaging
  • Pelvic ultrasonography
  • Magnetic resonance imaging

Background:

  • Adenomyosis is a common gynecologic condition.
  • Diagnosis often relies on imaging.
  • Sonohysterography is a key diagnostic tool.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To detail sonohysterographic findings of adenomyosis.
  • To correlate these findings with MRI.
  • To identify novel imaging signs.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of sonohysterography and MRI.
  • Correlation of imaging findings.
  • Analysis of diagnostic accuracy.

Main Results:

  • Sonohysterography showed characteristic features of adenomyosis.
  • MRI confirmed adenomyosis in 96% of cases with suggestive sonohysterography.
  • Myometrial cracks were identified as a new sonographic sign.

Conclusions:

  • Sonohysterography is highly effective for diagnosing adenomyosis when correlated with MRI.
  • Myometrial cracks represent a novel sonographic finding for adenomyosis.
