METHOD FOR RAPID HYSTEROMYOMA DEVELOPMENT PREDICTION Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC A61B8/08 G01N33/483 G01N33/53 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention is a method for rapid hysteromyoma development risk prediction, which consists in examination of uterus ultrasound parameters with calculation of the myomatous nodes number, the method of marginal dehydration of menstrual flow (MF) is used to determine the presence of parallel and fibrous structures and coefficient P is calculated: , where z is calculated by the formula: z=b₁×x₁+b₂×x₂+b₃×x₃+a, where b₁ is the coefficient equal to 2.172; x₁ are fibrous structures in MF: presence is "2"; absence is "1"; b₂ is the coefficient equal to 2.238; x₂ are parallel structures in MF: presence is "2"; absence is "1"; b₃ is the coefficient equal to 1.568; x₃ is the number of nodes; a is the constant equal to -10.915; and at a value of P>0.5, the levels of APRIL and TRAIL ligands are additionally investigated by the enzyme immunoassay method, and at APRIL value of more than 11.1 ng/ml, TRAIL value of less than 22.5 pg/ml a risk of rapid hysteromyoma development is predicted.

EFFECT: higher prediction accuracy.
