E10. In Conversation with Endometriosis Expert A/Prof Mathew Leonardi

In this episode of Talking O&G, host Dr Heather Waterfall is joined by Associate Professor Mathew Leonardi to answer RANZCOG members’ and trainees’ questions on endometriosis. An internationally recognised leader in gynaecological surgery and ultrasound, Mathew is an Associate Professor at McMaster University Medical Centre in Hamilton, Canada, and holds a PhD from the University of Sydney. He sits on the World Endometriosis Society Early Career Board and is a founding member of the Next Generation Committee at the International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynaecology. During the discussion, Mathew weighs in on the shift towards ultrasound as the preferred first-line diagnostic tool for endometriosis, the benefits and limitations of this method, how MRI compares, and recommendations for laparoscopy as a surgical intervention. Mathew also advocates for upskilling both gynaecologists and sonographers in advanced gynaecological ultrasound, the importance of ‘prehab’, and how to support patients with endometrioma who are seeking fertility. 🔗 Resources mentioned in this episode: • Talking O&G E4.
