Summary:

Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 45779
  • Image ID: 24363169
  • Image stack position: 41/63
  • Plane projection: Axial
  • Aux modality: T1 C+ fat sat
  • Study findings: Poorly defined mass in the posterior uterine body causing obstruction to the endometrial cavity and resultant hematometra.  There is a generalized increase in vascularity to the uterus (arrows).Note the 3 layers in the blood ie dependent red cells (containing metHb as low T2 signal), serum as supernatant (high T2 signal) and an intervening thin grey layer (ie the buffy coat of platelets).
  • Modality: MRI
  • System: Gynaecology
  • Findings: Expanded endometrium containing a fluid/fluid level on the longitudonal image and no blood flow on color Doppler.  Note thickening of the posterior uterine wall with the typical "venetian blind" echo pattern of adenomyosis (best seen on the transverse image)
