Gynaecological Ultrasounds
What is Gynecological Ultrasound?
Gynecological ultrasonography, or gynecologic sonography, is a specialized ultrasound technique used to assess and diagnose conditions related to the female pelvic organs. It provides detailed images of the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, bladder, adnexa (the area around the uterus), and the recto-uterine pouch. This procedure can also help identify other important findings within the pelvic region.
Why is it important?
Gynecological ultrasound is particularly helpful for:
-
Detecting Uterine Myomas (Fibroids): It can identify fibroids or growths in the uterus, which are common and can sometimes cause discomfort or other issues.
-
Assessing Abnormalities: It helps detect any abnormalities in the uterus, ovaries, or fallopian tubes, offering early insights into potential concerns.
-
Monitoring Ovarian Cysts or Fibroids: Regular ultrasounds can track the size and status of ovarian cysts or fibroids, ensuring they are managed appropriately.
-
Evaluating Menstrual Irregularities or Pelvic Pain: If you experience abnormal periods or unexplained pelvic pain, a gynecological ultrasound can help pinpoint the cause.
-
Supporting Fertility Assessments or Treatments: This scan plays a vital role in fertility evaluations, helping to identify issues that may affect conception and guiding treatment plans.
Why is this scan important for you?
Performed by an experienced Sonographer using state-of-the-art equipment, gynecological ultrasounds are non-invasive, safe, and reliable. This imaging method provides critical insights into your reproductive and pelvic health, allowing for informed decision-making and timely interventions when necessary.
