Recently, there have been several major technical advances in the sonographic diagnosis of ovarian cancer in its early stages. These include improved assessment of tumor morphology with transvaginal sonography (TVS), and detection and characterization of tumor neovascularity with transvaginal color Doppler sonography (TV-CDS) and contrast-enhanced transvaginal sonography (CE-TVS). This paper wi...

results totally, 101women were evaluated during the study. endometriosis was present at laparoscopy in 58 patients. mean age and the duration of infertility were calculated 30.78 ± 4.79 and 4.2 ± 2.91 years respectively. frequencies of each sonographic finding were as follow: echogenic points (%31.68), ovarian endometrioma (%30.69), blurred ovary margin (%7.92), fixation of ovaries (%15.9), dev...

Objective: To review the use of transvaginal ultrasound for the diagnosis of placenta previa and recommend management based on accurate placental localization. Options: Transvaginal sonography (TVS) versus transabdominal sonography for the diagnosis of placenta previa; route of delivery, based on placenta edge to internal cervical os distance; in-patient versus out-patient antenatal care; cercl...

background: abnormal uterine bleeding (aub) is one of the most common clinical problems in gynecology. transvaginal sonography (tvs) and hysteroscopy are two diagnostic methods for patients with aub. for most of the patients with aub, diagnostic hysteroscopy can be done in clinic with minimal discomfort and much lower expense than operative room. materials and methods: in our clinical trial stu...

Background Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is one of the most common clinical problems in gynecology. Transvaginal sonography (TVS) and hysteroscopy are two diagnostic methods for patients with AUB. For most of the patients with AUB, diagnostic hysteroscopy can be done in clinic with minimal discomfort and much lower expense than operative room. MaterialsAndMethods In our clinical trial study, ...

Background and Objectives: Measurement of cervical length using Transvaginal Sonography (TVS) is commonly used to identify those patients of threatened preterm labor who are likely to deliver. Biochemical markers in cervical secretions namely fetal fibronectin and Phosphorylated Insulin like Growth Factor Binding Protien-1 (phIGFBP-1) have also been used to improve predictability. This study ev...

conclusions our study demonstrated that 3d tvs has a good efficacy and reliable agreement with hysteroscopy in diagnosis of uterine lesions among infertile women. therefore, it can decrease the number of diagnostic hysteroscopies. results totally, 153 women were recruited in the investigation. patients aged 30.78 ± 4.79 years in average and the duration of infertility was 4.2 ± 2.91 years among...

Background: To present bilateral lower extremity agenesis which is a rare anomaly and to point out importance of transvaginal sonography (TVS) for the antenatal diagnosis of such anomalies during early in pregnancy. Case: A 25 year-old pregnant woman admitted to our department for first trimester nuchal translucency screening sonography. TVS revealed a 12 weeks and 2 days fetus with positive ca...

BACKGROUND Transvaginal ultrasound is used conventionally as initial investigation of patients with abnormal uterine bleeding but saline contrast sonohysterography is a better technique to reliably distinguish focal from diffuse endometrial lesions. This study was performed to compare the ability of transvaginal ultrasonography and saline infusion sonohysterography as initial modality for the d...
