Exploratory Study of the Interest of MRI Susceptibility Weighted Imaging for the Pre-operative Assessment of Pelvic Endometriosis Extent
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Susceptibility Weighted Imaging as 3D SWAN sequence for Endometriosis. Completed, enrolled 74 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Knowledge of the precise location of endometriosis is essential for a successful surgical treatment. MRI Susceptibility-Weighted Imaging (SWI-MRI) yields high sensitivity for blood by-products detection. Since endometriosis lesions are haemorrhagic, and therefore rich in blood by-products such as hemosiderin, SWI-MRI could be useful in the pre-operative assessment of endometriosis, especially in superficial peritoneal lesion detection. The purpose of our study is to evaluate the performance of SWI-MRI for the preoperative work-up of endometriosis
