Assessment of endometrial volume by three-dimensional ultrasound prior to embryo transfer: clues to endometrial receptivity
The aim of the present prospective study was to obtain quantitative data on endometrial volume by three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound at the time of embryo transfer in an in-vitro fertilization programme and to assess its value in predicting endometrial receptivity. The cycles (n = 72) were classified according to endometrial volume: group A2 ml, group B 2-4 ml, and group C4 ml. Comparisons of the groups showed that pregnancy and implantation rates were significantly lower (P0.05) in the group of patients with an endometrial volume2 ml. Furthermore, no pregnancy was achieved with an endometrial volume1 ml. It is concluded that endometrial volume by 3D transvaginal ultrasound may become a new …
Congenital Müllerian anomalies: a review of currently available imaging modalities
Congenital uterine anomalies are associated with infertility and adverse obstetric outcomes. The sensitivity of transvaginal sonography in diagnosing these anomalies ranges from 42% to 87%. More re...
