Understanding Gynaecological Ultrasound
Gynaecological ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the pelvic organs, including the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and surrounding structures. This imaging modality plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and management of various gynaecological conditions, allowing for detailed evaluation of pelvic anatomy, assessment of reproductive health, and monitoring of fetal development during pregnancy.
Our Gynaecological Ultrasound Services
Dr Lauren will complete her Diploma of Diagnostic Ultrasound through the Australian Society of Ultrasound Medicine in 2024. Dr Lauren offers comprehensive gynaecological ultrasound services, including:
- Pelvic Ultrasound: Dr Lauren performs pelvic ultrasounds to evaluate the pelvic organs for any abnormalities, such as ovarian cysts, uterine fibroids, polyps, or structural anomalies. This imaging modality provides valuable insights into your gynaecological health and helps guide further diagnostic and treatment decisions.
- Sonohysterogram (Saline Infusion Sonography): Sonohysterogram is a specialized ultrasound procedure used to evaluate the uterine cavity for abnormalities such as polyps, fibroids, adhesions, or uterine septum. During this procedure, a small amount of saline solution is infused into the uterus to enhance visualization and provide detailed images of the uterine lining.
- HyCoSy (Hysterosalpingo Contrast Sonography): HyCoSy is a minimally invasive ultrasound procedure used to assess the patency of the fallopian tubes and evaluate the uterine cavity for abnormalities. This procedure involves the injection of an aerated saline through the cervix, followed by real-time ultrasound imaging to visualize the flow of saline through the fallopian tubes and detect any blockages or abnormalities.
Benefits of Gynaecological Ultrasound
- Non-Invasive: Gynaecological ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging modality that does not require radiation or incisions, resulting in minimal discomfort and no recovery time.
- Accurate Diagnosis: Gynaecological ultrasound provides detailed images of the pelvic organs, allowing for accurate diagnosis of various gynaecological conditions and abnormalities.
- Guidance for Treatment: Gynaecological ultrasound plays a crucial role in guiding further diagnostic and treatment decisions, helping to tailor management strategies to your individual needs and preferences.
