Setubal, S. Maia, C. Lowenthal, Z. Sidiropoulou] Although laparoscopy continues to be the gold standard in the diagnosis of deep endometriosis, non-invasive imaging methods are important for an adequate staging of the disease, as they may determine the site, size, and severity of the lesions and thus contribute to planning the surgical treatment better. An observational study was carried out between April 2008 and June 2009 during which time nine consecutive patients underwent preoperative PET scan examination for clinical suspicion of deep endometriosis. PET scans provide a functional assessment of cellular activity; but in our study, it did not exhibit consistent results.
