| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We assessed the efficacy of three-dimensional (3D) surface-rendered (SR) images using 3D volume isotropic turbo spin-echo acquisition (VISTA) sequences to demonstrate 3D anatomical structures on magnetic resonance (MR) images for surgical planning of uterine fibroids. Compared with sagittal images, 3D-SR images could significantly reduce the time required for surgical planning of uterine fibroids without sacrificing the accuracy of the preoperative assessment. 3D-rendered images might be useful for education and may aid in reducing the burden on gynecologists.
