Assessment of transvaginal ultrasonography accuracy in the diagnosis of uterine pathologies in women with abnormal uterine bleeding
Abstract Background: The most common causes of abnormal uterine bleeding in women of reproductive age are uterine structural abnormalities. There are several modalities for the examination of abnormal uterine bleeding, including transvaginal ultrasound and hysteroscopy. In this study, we aimed to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of hysteroscopy versus transvaginal ultrasound in the diagnosis...
متن کاملImaging Modalities in Gynecology
Transabdominal gynecologic ultrasound combined with transvaginal scanning is a technique that was initially introduced in the early 1980’s and quickly became a “musthave” procedure for gynecologists and emergency room physicians for assistance in diagnosing many gynecologic conditions. Rapid advances in the quality of the equipment, techniques used to obtain best images, and research designed t...
متن کاملP-107: Can Combination of Hysterosalpingography and Ultrasound Replace Hysteroscopy in Diagnosis of Uterine Malformations in Infertile Women?
Background Müllerian anomalies are associated with infertility. Hysteroscopy as the gold standard of evaluating Müllerian anomalies is an invasive, expensive and risky procedure which requires enough experience. Transvaginal sonography (TVS) and hysterosalpingography (HSG) are less invasive procedures, but their accuracy is unknown. The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of combinati...
متن کاملIonotropic Glutamate Receptors and their Role in Neurological Diseases
Glutamate is extensively and relatively uniformly distributed in the central nervous system (CNS) and its effects mediated by two distinct groups of receptors including Ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors. Concentration of glutamate in the nervous system is much higher than in other tissues. Glutamate receptors play an important role in synaptic transmission, neural plasticity and n...
متن کاملThe Practical Application and Clinical Use of Modern 3D Ultrasound Technology in Gynaecology
3D volumetric ultrasound is shown to be of tremendous value particularly in gynaecology and associated clinical areas. The combination of modern 3D technology and high resolution transvaginal scanning provides increased anatomical and clinical detail. Furthermore it offers considerable benefits from a practical point of view. Nevertheless, its role in gynaecological ultrasound has yet to be ful...
