Abstract

Aim. To estimate the informativity of the technique of magnetic resonance tomography (MRT) of pelvic organs in diagnosis of genital endometriosis in women of reproductive age.

Materials and methods. The results of pelvic organs MRT from 415 women aged 18–45 years were analyzed. The examination was implemented using the apparatus Philips Intera 1.5 Tl. The method of copying the results of MR-investigations was used to receive the data on localization, degree of dissemination of endometriosis foci and concomitant diseases of female reproductive system, which were later compared with the results of the existing echographic studies of pelvic organs.

Results. The study demonstrated higher informativity of magnetic resonance tomography in diagnosis of different forms of endometriosis and gynecological pathology associated with it, unlike echography. Out of 415 women, who underwent magnetic resonance tomography of pelvic organs, endometriosis was diagnosed in 20 % of the examined women, while echographic study – only in 4 %. When implementing ultrasound, the signs of malignant neoplasms of the uterine neck and ovaries were not detected in a part of patients, whereas revealed with MRT of pelvic organs and further confirmed by the results of histological studies.

Conclusions. Application of magnetic resonance tomography permits to improve significantly diagnosis of endometriosis that is important for determination of adequate tactics of treatment, taking into account the existing concomitant gynecological pathology.
