Abstract:
The endometrial-myometrial junctional zone(referred to junctional zone[JZ])and the outer myometrium are both components of uterine myometrium.JZ is a specialized region between myometrium and endometrium of uterus,playing an important role in female physiology and reproductive functions.Ultrasound and MRI are the main imaging methods for evaluating JZ,able to comprehensively evaluate the morphology,thickness and blood perfusion of JZ,and to diagnose associated abnormalities.The progresses of ultrasound and MRI for evaluating JZ were reviewed in this article.
