Study Description

Brief Summary: Magnetic resonance (MR)-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation for fibroids is an outpatient approach for controlling symptom with an excellent safety record. It is important to exclude in advance patients who would not benefit from this treatment. For that purpose this study assesses the influence of fibroid elasticity and diffusion on ablation efficiency during treatment by MR-HIFU

Detailed Description: Pre-procedural predictors of treatment efficacy will be useful for excluding in advance patients who would not get benefit of this treatment. It seems that elastography, cellular density and perfusion could be considered as predictors. Fibroid elastography will be quantified by MRE Resoundant® system and pelvic ultrasound. Perfusion and cellular density will be quantified by MR diffusion.
