This study aims to investigate the dimensions of the bony pelvis and soft tissue structures and to characterize the normal gynaecological appearance of single Sudanese females using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Design/methodology/approach: Seventy-two single females aged between 15 and 80 years were selected using Sagittal T 2 -weighted pelvic MRIs of 1.5 tesla. The determined variables were uterine cervix cranio-caudal, uterus length, pelvis outlet, pelvic cavity and true conjugate, linearly correlated with age. Signal intensity was used to characterize the normal pelvis structures. For the bladder, uterus endometrium, myometrium, cervix, vagina, adenexa, ovaries, Sagittal T 1 ,T 2 and Coronal T 2 -weighted images were used. Findings: There were significant differences in Sudanese results when compared with Afro-American groups. Originality/value: This study may contribute to obstetrics and gynaecology in the future.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
