Bowel Ultrasound in Endometriosis: from Basics to Deep Infiltrating Disease
Bowel involvement in endometriosis represents one of the most challenging aspects of gynaecological ultrasound. This session provides a structured, practical approach to bowel ultrasound, progressing from fundamental scanning principles to the assessment of deep infiltrating endometriosis. Through live scanning and illustrative case examples, attendees will learn how to recognise key sonographic features, apply advanced techniques, and optimise reporting for multidisciplinary team discussions. Emphasis will be placed on improving diagnostic confidence, standardising assessments and reports, and integrating bowel ultrasound into routine gynaecological practice to support timely diagnosis and patient-centred care.
