AI Article Synopsis
- * Researchers collected and compared MRI characteristics across various subtypes of US, finding that only T2-weighted imaging showed differences in heterogeneity.
- * Overall, the MRI characteristics did not reveal significant differences among the US subtypes, although there was a notable difference in the apparent diffusion coefficient between US and uterine fibroids.
Article Abstract
Objectives: We investigated the utility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in the categorization of uterine sarcoma (US) and compared them with pathological findings.
Methods: The baseline and MRI characteristics were recorded and compared across the subtypes of USs.
Results: There were no differences in the conventional or DWI signals among the four subtypes of US, except in the heterogeneity of T2-weighted imaging. A difference in the mean apparent diffusion coefficient value for USs and uterine fibroids differed significantly (P=.019).
Conclusions: MRI characteristics showed no specific differences between any subtypes of US.
