Gynaecological ultrasound scan / 3D ultrasound
Gynaecological ultrasound scan is typically performed using a transvaginal probe ensuring the best image quality. A standard examination performed in all clinics is the 2D ultrasound scan to evaluate the uterus, ovaries, and other female pelvic organs. A newer technique providing more details about a reproductive organ is the 3D (three-dimensional) ultrasound scan performed with the use of next-generation equipment and specialized probes. This technique allows for a detailed assessment of the uterine cavity, comparable in quality to hysteroscopy. Additionally, this scan provides an accurate count of small follicles in the ovaries. A written 3D ultrasound scan report includes information beyond the standard scope provided in “regular” ultrasound scan reports. It is also accompanied by a series of images (5-10).
