Clinical use of magnetic resonance imaging in buttock augmentation with silicone implants: a retrospective analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The objective of the current study was to retrospectively examine the morphological magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of the gluteus maximus of buttock augmentation at levels of predetermined anatomic points.

Methods

The present study was a retrospective cross-sectional study. Adult women who underwent high-quality MRI scanning at Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2018 to January 2021 were included in this work. The transverse MRI data measured at the inferior point of the sacroiliac joint, just above the femoral head, and at the ischial tuberosity were collected and statistically analyzed.
