MR imaging features of endometriosis at the umbilicus
Abstract
The radiological features of extrapelvic endometriosis at the umbilicus with large ovarian endometriomas are described. In this patient, the umbilical lesion appears as hypointense on T(1) weighted and T(2) weighted MR images. The MR characteristics of endometriosis at the umbilicus are compared with those found within the pelvis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
