How to check adenomyosis by ultrasound and what are the methods?

Uterine adenomyosis can be diagnosed by ultrasound examination. The examination methods include:

1. Ultrasound examination features an enlarged uterus, uneven myometrial echo, and multiple scattered anechoic reflections. Localized adenomyosis is manifested by unclear boundaries between the uterine wall mass and the normal myometrium. Compared with traditional color ultrasound, the Doppler color ultrasound system introduced from abroad by Beijing Tianlun Hospital can collect more accurate images.

2. CT, MRI and hysterosalpingography In the past, iodized oil was used for contrast imaging, and the iodized oil could be seen entering the uterine muscle layer, with a positive rate of about 20%. Currently, the "digital dynamic hysterosalpingography technology" used by Beijing Tianlun Hospital has better effects. CT and MRI are also often used as auxiliary examinations.

3. Endoscopic examination: Hysteroscopy can check whether the patient's uterine cavity is enlarged. When abnormal gland openings are seen, cold scissors can be used instead of electric cutting to prevent adhesions in the uterine cavity and remove the endometrium and suspicious tissue underneath it for pathological examination, thereby effectively diagnosing whether it has mutated.

There are many ways to treat adenomyosis now, and the main emphasis is on targeted treatment. Drugs can be used to treat adenomyosis, and their main function is to relieve the various symptoms caused by this disease. In addition, adenomyosis can also be treated through pseudopregnancy therapy or pseudomenopause therapy. Traditional Chinese medicine also has a certain effect in treating adenomyosis.
