*The DEEP INFILTRATING ENDOMETRIOSIS (DIE) scan is a specialised, dynamic transabdominal and transvaginal ultrasound examination, best performed after a bowel preparation. It aims to looks for deposits of disease on pelvic organs and other pelvic structures, including bowel. It also assesses for indirect signs of endometriosis such as specific site tenderness and mobility of the pelvic organs.
The examination is performed by a dedicated gynaecological sonographer and assessed by a women’s ultrasound specialist who is also an experienced endometriosis surgeon.
