Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging of the female pelvis permits visualization of soft tissue structure previously unseen with other radiological techniques. The internal architecture of the corpus uterus, cervix and vagina are directly visualized in any plane. Furthermore, the hormonal environment of the female can be indirectly determined via assessment of the MR appearance of the uterus. Similarly, the complex changes which occur during pregnancy, such as cervical effacement and the relationship of internal os, fetal part and placenta, are easily documented. MR pelvimetry enables fast, safe depiction of the birth canal. Finally, the demonstrated fetal anatomy may prove particularly useful in the evaluation of intrauterine growth retardation and anomalies indeterminate by ultrasound.
