MRI for diagnosing pelvic endometriosis
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study uses MRI scans to help diagnose pelvic endometriosis, a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside it. It aims to improve detection and guide treatment decisions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with endometriosis through a biopsy or surgery.
- You are planning to receive treatment for endometriosis.
- You have not had any prior treatment for endometriosis, such as surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation.
- You are able to undergo an MRI scan without severe movement or image quality issues.

This trial is for people who have symptoms that might be caused by endometriosis and are being referred for a pelvic MRI. It uses MRI (a scan) to help doctors better understand suspected pelvic endometriosis.
This study uses a special MRI to look at the nerves in your pelvis and see if endometriosis is affecting them. This could help doctors better understand and treat your pain or other symptoms.
This study uses a combined PET/MRI scan to better see endometriosis in people who are already scheduled for laparoscopic surgery. It may help find spots of endometriosis that are hard to see with other tests.
This study tests whether a special imaging scan (PET-CT) can better detect endometriosis—a condition where tissue grows where it shouldn't inside the pelvis. If you have chronic pelvic pain and are scheduled for a diagnostic procedure called laparoscopy, this scan might help doctors see the disease more clearly.
This trial compares two imaging methods—transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and MRI—to see which one is better at finding deep infiltrating endometriosis before surgery. If you have endometriosis and are planning laparoscopic surgery, this study may help guide your treatment by improving how doctors see the disease.
This trial tests a magnetic chair that may help relax pelvic floor muscles and reduce pain in people with endometriosis. It is for those who have had pelvic pain for a while and are already on hormone therapy.
