Acute onset of endometriosis in a 37-year-old woman with acute pelvic pain and fever for the last 4 days. Sagittal (a), oblique-coronal (b) T2-weighted images and sagittal (d), oblique-coronal (e) fat-suppressed T1-weighted images show a distended serpiginous right fallopian tube (arrows) with homogeneously high T2-weighted signal and low T1-signal intensity, consistent with hydrosalpinx. Additionally, oblique-coronal (b) and sagittal (c) T2-weighted images, oblique-coronal (e) and sagittal (f) fat-suppressed T1-weighted images demonstrate an endometriotic cyst of the left ovary (arrowheads) showing high T1 and low T2 signal (shading sign)
