Ultrasonography, especially Transvaginal sonography (TVS) is an effective, non-invasive and reliable investigation for the diagnosis of adenomyosis. The Morphological Uterus Sonographic Assessment group consensus terminology provides a standardized lexicon for the description of myometrial lesions and has been recently revised to include direct and indirect features of adenomyosis on sonography. In this article, we aim to provide a simplified framework for the practical application of the MUSA group consensus terminology in the ultrasonographic evaluation of adenomyosis, aiding in accurate diagnosis and informed decision-making.
Keywords: MUSA group consensus terminology; adenomyoma; adenomyosis; fibroid; leiomyoma; ultrasonography.
