Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
The DW-MRI images will be scored both for quality and for quantity. Qualitatively, contrast, absence of artefacts, regularity of the image and overall quality will be scored. Quantitatively, the endometrium thickness, signal intensity and ADC of the endometrium versus junctional zone and myometrium will be measured. In addition, the DW-MRI images will be compared to the conventional T2-weighted images.	—
