Abstract:
Considering the growing availability of ultrasound diagnostic methods in gynecology, its role in the infertility setting is increasing.In this review, we present an up-to-date ultrasound based diagnostic scheme in infertility workup comprising the evaluation of ovarian anatomy and function, uterine exploration, as well as tubal patency. The possibility of performing the vast majority of infertility diagnostics by ultrasound in the ambulatory settings is not only attractive and beneficial to patients, but also to health care system.Thus, it is vital for gynecologists to implement modern non-invasive ultrasound modalities in their everyday practice.
