MRI of bilateral endometriomas in a 31-year-old woman suffering from lumbar and pelvic pain. Oblique-axial (a) and oblique-coronal (b) T2-weighted images show bilateral endometriomas (arrowheads) with variable grade of low signal intensity until complete signal loss (‘shading sign’). On oblique-axial (c) and oblique-coronal (d) precontrast fat-suppressed T1-weighted images, the cysts display homogeneous high signal intensity (arrowheads)
