Residual fibroid perfusion

In addition, the degree of gadolinium enhancement is not correlated with fibroid volume reduction [35, 37]. Therefore, these data suggest that ultrasound may not be useful for the imaging follow-up particularly in patients who have recurrent symptoms [37]. This observation may change if a more accurate means than color Doppler is developed to assess residual fibroid perfusion with ultrasound [38,39].
