What Types of Ultrasounds are Common in Gynecology?
There are several types of ultrasounds used in gynecology:
Transabdominal Ultrasound: This type involves moving a transducer over the abdomen to capture images. Transvaginal Ultrasound: This type involves inserting a specially designed transducer into the vagina to get detailed images of the reproductive organs. Doppler Ultrasound: This special form of ultrasound measures the flow of blood in the vessels, which can be crucial for assessing the placenta and fetal health.
