Abstrakt: A recent study conducted at the Affiliated Hospital of Hangzhou Normal University analyzed the predictive value of 3-day MRI changes after uterine artery embolization (UAE) for treating symptomatic uterine fibroids. The research focused on comparing pre- and post-embolization MRI images to categorize patients into complete and incomplete necrosis groups. The study found that short-term MRI changes can reflect changes in blood supply to fibroids and normal uterine tissue, with significant impact on volumetric reduction based on the extent of necrosis. This research provides valuable insights into predicting the efficacy of medium-term embolization outcomes for patients with uterine fibroids. [Extracted from the article]
