Effect of high-intensity focused ultrasound ablation on lesion stiffness and symptoms of adenomyosis

Key Points

• This research aims to evaluate how high-intensity focused ultrasound affects lesion stiffness and associated symptoms in adenomyosis patients.
• Observed adenomyosis patients with moderate to severe dysmenorrhea
• Applied high-intensity focused ultrasound ablation
• Measured lesion stiffness as an imaging index
• Assessed symptom relief post-treatment
• Confirmed that lesion stiffness reflects dysmenorrhea severity
• Observed a significant reduction in lesion stiffness after HIFUa
• Noted an improvement in dysmenorrhea symptoms following treatment
