Transvaginal Ultrasound Shear Wave Elastography for the Evaluation of Benign Uterine Pathologies: A Prospective Pilot Study

Abstract

TVUS SWE did not distinguish adenomyosis from leiomyoma. However, our pilot study demonstrated that myometrial SWVs were higher in uteri with adenomyosis and leiomyomas than in uteri with myometrium with no abnormalities suggesting a potential role for SWE in treatment response assessment.
