High-resolution contrast-enhanced MRI of the uterus with a phased-array multicoil.
High-resolution contrast-enhanced dynamic MRI of the uterus can be performed with the combination of a phased-array multicoil and fast GE techniques. This technique can improve the ability to visualize normal anatomy of the uterus and periuterine tissues, including vascular structures and pelvic ligaments, and to detect pathologic processes of the uterus and determine their extent.
