7:00 - 8:00 PM Central | 1.0 SDMS CME Credit | Category: OB
This session explores the role of ultrasound in the early detection of endometriosis in adolescents, including the development of specialized imaging protocols and multidisciplinary collaboration. Participants will review the clinical presentation and imaging findings of adolescent endometriosis, which may be more subtle than findings in adults due to earlier-stage disease. The presentation will also address lessons learned through program development and the importance of early identification and intervention in supporting patient quality of life and long-term reproductive health.
Objectives:
- Recognize the clinical presentation and ultrasound imaging findings associated with endometriosis in adolescents, including key differences from adult disease.
- Describe clinical and ultrasound imaging protocols used to evaluate adolescents with suspected endometriosis.
- Identify the signs and symptoms that warrant further evaluation and explain the importance of early identification and intervention in adolescent endometriosis.
