There are numerous indications for testing, the most important concept being realization of the diagnostic capabilities of magnetic resonance to answer...
Women with pelvic symptoms had a slight but significant preference for TVUS over MRI. Identifying specific distressing aspects of each test and patient factors contributing to negative perceptions can direct improvement in both test environment and patient preparation.
