Endometriosis is a common gynecologic disorder often associated with chronic pelvic pain, infertility, and reduced quality of life. Conventional imaging modalities, such as transvaginal ultrasound and MRI, may underestimate the …
Endometriosis can be tough to diagnose accurately, especially when standard imaging misses hidden lesions. We explored whether 68Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT, a new molecular imaging technique, could spot multifocal endometriosis that conventional …
Fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) PET is an emerging molecular imaging modality that is widely used in oncology and increasingly investigated in nononcologic diseases. Abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) is a …
Endometriosis is a highly prevalent, chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic presence of endometrial-like tissue, driving significant morbidity and chronic pelvic pain. Pathologically, it is increasingly recognized as a …
Do activated fibroblasts expressing fibroblast activation protein-α (FAP) - which is traceable in positron emission topography/computed topography (PET/CT) - play a role in the microenvironment of endometriosis?
