PURPOSE The aim of the study was to examine serum hormone levels, ovarian volume, stromal artery Doppler parameters of patients with Behçet disease (BD) to assess whether there are vascular changes in the gonads of these patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty patients with BD and 31 healthy controls aged between 18-45 years were examined in the early follicular phase of the menstrual cycle (d...

background: as delay in diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy is directly associated with increasing mortality, it studying the high sensitivity and specificity of transvaginal color doppler sonography as the most preferred imaging method with the most accurate and rapid diagnosis results seems to be necessary. therefore, this study aims to evaluate the diagnostic value of transvaginal color doppler s...

Infertility is defined as the failure to conceive a desired pregnancy after 12 months of unprotected intercourse, and affects 10 percent of married couples. The causes of infertility can involve one or both partners. Causes of female infertility: • Fallopian tube factors (damage or blockage due to salpingitis, EP) • Ovulation disorders (PCOS ,Early menopause ) • Uterine factors • Intrauterine l...

Methods In this prospective study, we included 216 patients visiting our department for abnormal uterine bleeding. All patients had a transvaginal ultrasound with doppler study and an hysterosonography. Secondly, the patients in whom we diagnosed a suspected organic lesion were addressed to an endoscopic or surgical procedure with pathological examination. Initially we evaluated the feasibility...

It is regarded as saf...

AIM To clarify the usefulness of three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound in the assessment of the fetal head and brain, according to 3D ultrasound surface reconstruction, multiplanar image analysis, three-dimensional angiography, and volume calculation. METHODS We examined 326 normal fetuses between 10 and 40 weeks of gestation using 3D ultrasound (Voluson, 530D, Medison, Seoul, Korea), mainly with...

Gestational trophoblastic neoplasias (GTN) are rare tumours that constitute less than 1% of all gynecological malignancies. Invasive mole is a distinct subgroup of GTN, which if not diagnosed and treated early, can result in serious complications like uterine perforation and haemoperitoneum. We present a rare case of an invasive mole of the uterus, which developed following the evacuation of a ...

OBJECTIVES To determine if tumor vascularity as assessed by three-dimensional (3D) power Doppler ultrasound can be used to discriminate between benign and malignant ovarian tumors, if adding 3D power Doppler ultrasound to gray-scale imaging improves differentiation between benignity and malignancy, and if 3D power Doppler ultrasound adds more to gray-scale ultrasound than does two-dimensional (...

Recent studies have shown that transvaginal ultrasound provides a more reliable and objective evaluation of the uterine cervix, demonstrating that the shorter the length of the cervix the higher the risk of preterm delivery. Measuring cervical volume could even be a better reflection of cervical morphology. Three-dimensional (3D) imaging combined with power Doppler, theoretically provides the p...

(a) More sophisticated The latest generation of ultrasound machines in the upper range have become more complicated. A few machines already have 256 grey levels incorporated into the monitor giving more differentiation between tissues l . Three dimensional ultrasound has also arrived at the scene and this is mainly by reconstruction from the scanning data of the fetus. It is hoped that this wil...
