Ultrasound in gynecology
Ultrasound examination (echography) is one of the most common methods of diagnosis. The method is based on the use of a physical phenomenon, the essence of which is that the ultrasonic beam emitted by the generator (signal) when reflected from tissues differing from each other by their density, changes. The reflected part of the ultrasonic beam falls on the transducer and turns into electric oscillations, clearly visible on the screen. This makes it possible to reproduce the structure of the organ under study and determine its size. Ultrasound is used to diagnose uterine pregnancy, ectopic pregnancy, uterine fibroids, the presence of IUDs in the uterine cavity, endometriosis, polycystic ovaries, infertility, tumors and ovarian cysts. The latest models of apparatus are so advanced that they are used to control the growth of the follicle in the ovaries, the process of ovulation, it is possible to determine the thickness of the endometrium (mucous uterus), to reveal its hyperplasia, polyps.
This method has no contraindications, absolutely painless and harmless. Preparation for the study is to fill the bladder. 1 hour before the procedure, you need to drink 1 liter of liquid (but not carbonated). If necessary, an emergency examination, the bladder is filled through a catheter. Using a vaginal sensor allows you to diagnose a pathology without filling the bladder. This study is not affected by obesity and adhesions in the small pelvis. The method makes it possible to diagnose processes located behind the uterus, inflammatory formations of the uterine appendages, which can not be done with conventional sensors. Before the vaginal probe, the bladder is emptied.
