Diagnostic imaging and vascular embolization for uterine leiomyomas
Abstract
This review article explains the relatively new therapy method of vascular embolization for leiomyomas of the uterus. The current concepts of diagnostic imaging of uterine leiomyomas with emphasis on preembolization imaging and postembolization follow-up are presented.
