Representative sagittal T2-weighted MRI for each subtype. a Advanced type: the adenomyotic lesion invades the endometrium from the serosa through the full thickness of the myometrium. b Extrinsic type: the adenomyotic lesion is localised to the serosal side of the posterior wall of the uterus. A normal myometrium exists between the adenomyotic lesion and the junctional zone. The arrows show the border between the adenomyotic lesion and the uterine myometrium. c Intrinsic type: the adenomyotic lesion is localised to the endometrial side. The myometrium external to the lesion is intact. The arrows show the border between the adenomyotic lesion and uterine myometrium. MRI, magnetic resonance imaging; EM, endometrium; JZ, junctional zone; BL, bladder. The asterisks show the adenomyotic lesion
