Adenomyosis vs. Fibroids: Why MRI Is the Gold Standard for Correct Diagnosis

At Atlanta Fibroid Center we frequently see patients diagnosed with uterine fibroids but after reviewing their MRI images, Dr. John Lipman sometimes discovers that a patient has adenomyosis or both, uterine fibroids and adenomyosis. It's very important to diagnose conditions correctly, but in case of adenomyosis it's not easy to do without MRI.

In this video, Dr. John C. Lipman explains why MRI is the gold standard for diagnosing patients correctly and why adenomyosis is often misdiagnosed as fibroids, endometriosis or other conditions.

Uterine artery embolization (UAE) successfully treats adenomyosis and uterine fibroids. Learn more about UAE:
