Advances in MRI Assessment of Pelvic Space Changes Following Ultrasound-Guided High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Ablation of Uterine Fibroids

Abstract

Uterine fibroids remain a prevalent condition among women of reproductive age, imposing substantial healthcare burdens that necessitate effective therapeutic strategies. Ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound emerges as a safe and effective treatment modality for uterine fibroids, with postoperative magnetic resonance imaging serving as a valuable tool for evaluating pelvic fascia integrity and surrounding tissue modifications. This review systematically examines the determinants influencing pelvic fascial dynamics and adjacent tissue alterations, while elucidating their clinical correlations with postoperative complications.
