Fig. 1 Transverse (a) and sagittal (b and c) non-enhanced T2-weighted turbo spin-echo MR images obtained from three patients. (a) Two small submucosal leiomyomas (arrows) largely (≥50%) protrude into the uterine cavity. (b) A leiomyoma (asterisk) protrudes into the uterine cavity indicating minor (<50%) submucosal component. The third image (c) shows an intramural leiomyoma (asterisk) without contact with the junctional zone.

Fig. 2 Enhanced T1-weighted gradient-echo MR images illustrate the enhancement of leiomyomas in three patients. A transverse (a) image shows intense (100%) enhancement of the large single leiomyoma (asterisk), a sagittal (b) image shows 90% enhancement of leiomyomas, and in a transverse (c) image is 30% enhancement of large leiomyomas (asterisks).

Fig. 3 A sagittal enhanced T1-weighted gradient-echo MR image obtained from a patient with increased urinary frequency shows large degenerated leiomyomas (asterisks) with 60% enhancement. European Journal of Radiology , DOI: ( /j.ejrad ) Copyright © 2011 Elsevier Ireland Ltd Terms and Conditions
