Abstract
Endometrium has a wide range of appearance as well as overlapping imaging features, adding to challenges faced while diagnosing endometrial lesions. Although USG is the first modality to detect the endometrial lesions, MRI provides more details about the lesion. Hence, we aimed to assess and compare USG and MRI in characterising endometrial pathologies and to compare their sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive values and negative predictive values for diagnosis using histopathology (HPE) as a gold standard.
