摘要

Endometriosis presents a common and significant health burden affecting approximately 1 in 10 reproductive age patients who are assigned female at birth. Recently guidelines have begun shifting away from laparoscopy as the first-line diagnostic tool and instead recommend imaging for initial diagnosis and presurgical mapping of endometriosis. This shift places the radiologist in a central role for diagnosis and assessment of management efforts. During this comprehensive review article, we discuss the importance of MDC in the treatment of advanced endometriosis, the radiologist ‘s role at endometriosis MDC as well as the opportunities that exist for the radiologist to add-value in an endometriosis service.
