Pelvic Ultrasound
A pelvic ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging technique used to assess the uterus, ovaries, and other pelvic structures. This procedure helps diagnose conditions affecting reproductive health and is commonly used for routine evaluations, pregnancy monitoring, and fertility assessments.
Types of Specialized Ultrasounds:
-
Transabdominal Ultrasound – Uses an external probe placed on the abdomen for a broad overview of the pelvic organs.
-
Transvaginal Ultrasound – Uses a smaller internal probe for detailed imaging, providing clearer views of the uterus and ovaries.
