Myoma Microvascularization Analysis Using Sonovue Before and After Uterine Artery Embolization

NCT00351494 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 40

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound is supposed to improve the detection of myomas as well as improve the follow-up after specific treatments like embolization. It will also help the investigators better understand the mechanism of success or failure for embolization and could reduce the amount of particles injected by determining the endpoint of the procedure in order to treat the myomas while preserving the myometrium.

Conditions

  • Myoma

Interventions

PROCEDURE

contrast enhanced ultrasonography

Three contrast-enhanced ultrasonography : before embolization, after one day and after 6 months. Abdominal route 2.4 ml sonovue per injection / bolus

PROCEDURE

embolization

Intervention is described in the case report form for each patient
