Uterine Artery Embolisation for Leiomyomas: Report on technical and symptom-related results in correlation of volume measured MRI changes.

Ziele: To monitor changes in volume of uterus and dominant leiomyoma after bilateral uterine artery embolisation (UAE) in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) by a volume-measurement-tool and to correlate with symptom related results. Methode: 108 women (mean age, 41 years) with symptomatic leiomyoma were treated with bilateral embolisation of the uterine arteries. Magnetic resonance imaging and evaluation of symptom-related results by a standardized Questionnaire were performed 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after treatment. Volume measurement of uterus and dominant leiomyoma was performed by a 3D Visualization and Volume…
