Ultrasonographic evaluation of Vaginal Bleeding before 12 weeks of gestation
نویسنده
چکیده
Ultrasound imaging plays a major role in evaluation of pregnancies especially in the first trimester of pregnancy. The aim of this study is to correlate the clinical and ultrasonographic diagnosis of vaginal bleeding in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy and to find out its incidence and to study other associated conditions of vaginal bleeding during pregnancy.100 patients with vaginal bleeding upto 12 th weeks of gestation were examined both clinically and ultrasonographically. All the cases were subjected to S&E and HPE. In this study, USG helped in establishing correct diagnosis in 44% of clinically misdiagnosed cases apart from confirming the diagnosis in rest.
