Abstract

CORRELATION BETWEEN MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING FEATURE AND THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS OF FOCUSED ULTRASOUND ABLATION ON UTERINE FIBROIDS

*Dr. Sabeen Sahar, Dr. Rabia Khalil Rao and Dr. Mubashira Ilyas

ABSTRACT

Objective: To determine the correlation between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of uterine fibroids (UFs) and therapeutic effects of high-intensity focused ultrasound ablation (HIFUA), and to provide evidence for UFs diagnosis with MRI in clinical practice. Methods: Forty-three UFs patients who were treated in our hospital from April 2016 to June 2018 were selected, including 72 UFs (48 multiple and 24 single UFs). Transverse, sagittal and coronal MRI scanning was performed one week before and after HIFUA to record UF number, location, type (intramural fibroid, submucosal fibroid and subserosal fibroid), mean diameter, hemoperfusion state, volume and ablation rate. The patients were followed up in the postoperative 1st, 2nd and 3rd months. Results: HIFUA exerted the best ablative effect on fibroids on the anterior uterine wall (F=26.763, P=0.036). Various types of fibroids were ablated significantly differently (F=3.406, P
