Observation of Intramural Fibroid Expulsion on MRI after Uterine Artery Embolization

Figure 1

Magnetic resonance images before uterine artery embolization. (a) T2-weighted axial image demonstrates a large intramural fibroid. The central area has a high intensity, suggesting degeneration. The asterisk () shows another degenerative uterine fibroid. (b) T2-weighted sagittal image demonstrates the endometrium (white arrow) compressed by the fibroid. The distance between the endometrium (white arrow) and the fibroid is very short. The asterisk () shows another degenerative uterine fibroid.
