Dr Eisen Liang has published peer-reviewed medical research spanning more than 30 years. In recent years, his research has focused particularly on women’s health, including uterine fibroids, adenomyosis, pelvic congestion syndrome and uterine artery embolisation. His publications have examined treatment safety, long-term outcomes, diagnostic imaging, radiation reduction and ways to improve patient selection and procedural techniques. This combination of clinical experience and ongoing research supports the evidence-based care provided at Sydney Fibroid Clinic.
