The aim of this case-control study was to assess the burden of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in adolescents with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and its associations with insulin resistance, hyperandrogenism, and other metabolic characteristics of the syndrome. A total of 87 Caucasian adolescent girls (47 with PCOS and 40 controls), aged 12.3-20.

More objective means for predicting PAS and clinical outcome may be provided by MRI descriptors. Purpose To investigate the association of intraplacental fetal vessel (IFV) diameter at MRI with PAS and peripartum complications.

Background: Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders may be associated with significant mortality and morbidity for both mother and fetus.
Purpose/hypothesis: To identify MRI risk factors for poor peripartum outcome in gravid patients at risk for PAS.
Study Type: Prospective.
Objective: The objective of our study was to evaluate MRI diagnostic ability in predicting invasive placenta with extrauterine spread in high-risk gravid patients.
Subjects And Methods: Between March 2016 and June 2017, 49 patients (mean age, 35.7 years; mean gestational age, 32.
Aim: To investigate the predictive ability of tumor size for deep myometrial invasion (≥50%) and metastatic lymphadenopathy, on maximal tumor diameter (MRI) of endometrial cancer.
Materials And Methods: Our study population consisted of 105 patients (mean age: 59.8 years) with histologically confirmed endometrial cancer.
This is to evaluate the predictive ability of clinical examination and preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the staging of early cervical cancer. We prospectively evaluated 115 patients with cervical cancer, International Federation of Gynecologic and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage
