Endometrium Blood Flow Doppler Evaluation in Infertility
Author(s): Mehboob Hassan Bhatti*
Introduction: In the recent past, the cornerstone for the assessment of uterine vasculature was two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound. However it does not detect flow in small endometrial and sub-endometrial vessels, an important feature to be assessed in infertile patients. Nowadays in reproductive medicine, three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound is gradually replacing 2D ultrasound. 3D Ultrasound has many benefits over traditional 2D ultrasound in general and in the area of endometrial and subendometrial blood flow evaluation in particular. The 3D Ultrasound generates detailed, reliable data for a preselected area and stores it. For better reproducibility and precision, new techniques were implemented in 3D Ultrasound. In this paper, we have reviewed the indices of 3D power Doppler in endometrial and subendometrial blood flow in infertile and pregnant women. Objective: To evaluate endometrial .. View More»
