The Application Value of Transvaginal Three‐Dimensional Ultrasonography in the Diagnosis of Adenomyosis of the Uterus

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
In this study, 3D‐TVS measurements of the uterine junction zone (JZ) in 120 patients showed that a JZmax threshold of ≥ 0.45 cm yielded 77% sensitivity and 89% specificity for adenomyosis diagnosis. Notably, JZ thickness varies minimally with age, demonstrating its stability and excellent diagnostic performance.
