5056 Background: HistoScanning (HS) is a medical device developed to improve interpretation of echography. Ovarian (OV) HistoScanning (OVHS) performs computerized analysis of voxel files generated during transvaginal ultrasonography (TVS). …
An optimal initial infertility investigation protocol would be a process that is diagnostically accurate, expeditious, cost-effective, reliable and as minimally invasive as possible. In addition, the investigation should provide the clinici…

OBJECTIVE: Our purpose was to evaluate the risk of malignancy in surgically removed ovarian cysts that were characterized before the operation as unilocular according to transvaginal ultrasonography. STUDY DESIGN: This prospective analysis…
PurposeTo evaluate whether a simplified infertility investigation protocol, focusing on the use of hysterocontrast sonography (HyCoSy), one blood test, and a semen analysis, would be sufficient as an initial screening test to select couples…
ObjectivesTo compare the use a simplified ultrasound based infertility investigation of the infertile couple with the current use of laparoscopy and hysteroscopy.Study designThirty-three infertile couples underwent transvaginal ultrasound a…
OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present study was to examine the role of hysterosalpingocontrast sonography (HyCoSy) as a screening test for endometrial and tubal pathology at the start of the infertility investigation protocol. METHODS: HyCoSy …
BACKGROUND: Nitric oxide is a potent vasodilator and is involved in several physiological events during the female reproductive cycle. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine the acute effects of a nitric oxide donor on ultrasound…
The aim of the study reported here was to establish complementary data for changes in uterine size, echogenicity and vascularity during the menstrual cycle relative to a positive self-test for urinary luteinizing hormone (LH) and day 1 of n…
Dilatation and curettage is used as the "gold standard" for diagnosing pathologic endometrial lesions in women with postmenopausal bleeding. In this group of women, about 10% have an endometrial cancer and an additional 20% have some other …
Endovaginal scanning (EVS) of the endometrium has recently been proposed as a method for the investigation of the endometrial mucosa. In this study, the specificity and sensitivity of EVS have been compared with endometrial cytology and D&C…
