Gynaec & Infertility Ultrasound

In the context of gynaecology and infertility, ultrasound plays a crucial role in assessing reproductive health, diagnosing potential problems, and guiding treatment, including monitoring follicular development and assessing uterine conditions. 

Here's a breakdown of how ultrasound is used in gynaecology and infertility:

• Initial Assessment:

  A pelvic ultrasound is often the first step in evaluating female infertility, helping to identify the presence and condition of the uterus, ovaries, and other pelvic structures. 

• Evaluating Uterine Conditions:

  Ultrasound can detect abnormalities like fibroids, uterine malformations, and hydrosalpinges (fluid-filled fallopian tubes). 

• Assessing Ovarian Function:

  Ultrasound helps assess ovarian reserve (the number and quality of eggs), identify ovarian cysts, and monitor follicular development during ovulation induction. 

• Monitoring Follicular Development:

  During fertility treatments, ultrasound is used to track the growth and development of follicles, which contain eggs, and assess the endometrial lining. 

• Guiding Procedures:

  Ultrasound guidance is used for various procedures, including intrauterine insemination (IUI), embryo transfer, endometrial biopsies, and hysteroscopic procedures. 

• Saline Infusion Sonography (SIS):

  This technique uses saline to assess the uterine cavity and can be used to evaluate tubal patency (whether the fallopian tubes are open). 

• 3D Ultrasound:

  Advanced ultrasound techniques, including 3D and Doppler imaging, enhance the understanding of ovarian function, follicular maturity, and endometrial receptivity. 

• Diagnosis of PCOS:

  Ultrasound can help in the diagnosis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) by assessing ovarian morphology and identifying characteristic features. 

• Evaluating Endometrial Receptivity:

  Ultrasound can assess the thickness and appearance of the endometrial lining, which is important for successful implantation of an embryo. 

• Abdominal Ultrasound:

  In some cases, abdominal ultrasound may be used to assess pelvic structures that are not fully visible with transvaginal scanning, or to guide procedures in certain situations.
