Sonographic Evaluation of Fibroid Vascularity as a Predictor of Symptom Severity

Abstract

Background: Fibroids of the uterus are a frequent source of gynecological morbidity, but the manifestationof the symptoms may differ broadly in women with this condition. Although the size and location of fibroidhave been the focus traditionally, they do not necessarily explain clinical manifestation. The initial concern has hence been on the increased focus on fibroid vascularity
