Diffusion Weighted Imaging of Uterine Fibroids: Predicting Volumetric Response Following Uterine Artery Embolization

Kinh Gian Do¹, Stella Kang¹, Timothy Clark¹, Elizabeth Hecht¹

In 8 patients with 21 uterine fibroids, higher apparent diffusion coefficient of uterine fibroids on pre-procedural MRI correlate with greater volumetric reduction following uterine artery embolization. Fibroid volume reduction did not correlate with fibroid size or relative enhancement.
