Predicting the Pain Outcome of Surgery for Endometriosis
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 31 Dec 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study aims to determine whether the investigators can predict who will get benefit in terms of their pain from surgery for more severe forms of endometriosis. The investigators will use brain imaging to explore this, as it allows meaningful results from a smaller sample of people than if questionnaires alone were relied on.
