    Summary

    Obstetricians can use physical examination, radiopelvimetry, and ultrasound (echography) for pregnancy monitoring. Ultrasound is highlighted as a valuable tool for assessing uterine contents and guiding prenatal care.

    Area of Science:

    • Obstetrics and Gynecology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Diagnostic Techniques

    Background:

    • Traditional physical examination methods have limitations in assessing uterine contents.
    • Radiopelvimetry has been used but carries radiation exposure risks.
    • Advancements in medical imaging offer improved diagnostic capabilities in obstetrics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review current physical and imaging methods for obstetricians.
    • To emphasize the utility of echography in modern obstetrics.
    • To provide guidance on pregnancy monitoring with and without echography.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing literature on physical and imaging techniques in obstetrics.
    • Comparative analysis of radiopelvimetry and echography.
    • Discussion of echography's role in pregnancy assessment.

    Main Results:

    • Echography offers significant advantages over traditional methods for evaluating uterine contents.
    • Radiopelvimetry is an alternative but less preferred due to radiation.
    • Echography provides crucial information for monitoring pregnancy progression and fetal well-being.

    Conclusions:

    • Echography is a key diagnostic tool in contemporary obstetrics.
    • Recommendations are provided for integrating echography into routine prenatal care.
    • Effective pregnancy monitoring strategies are outlined, adaptable to resource availability.
