Overview

Ultrasonography, although not the most sensitive or specific imaging modality, is commonly the primary type of imaging done for patients with dysfunctional uterine bleeding. Transvaginal ultrasounds are more accurate compared to pelvic ultrasound, but pelvic ultrasound reveals certain pathologies, including uterine and adnexal masses, more clearly. Ultrasonography is a simple and easily available diagnostic method for PCOS.

Ultrasound

Ultrasound Findings
Underlying Cause Ultrasound Imaging Findings
Endometrial Polyps[1]
Case courtesy of Dr J. Ray Ballinger, Radiopaedia.org, rID: 23679

  • Solitary, homogeneous and echogenic lesion
  • Rarely hypoechoic or heterogeneous
  • May be pedunculated (with a stalk) or broad-based
  • May possibly be surrounded by endometrial fluid
Adenomyosis[2]

Malignancy[4]
Case courtesy of Dr Aneta Kecler-Pietrzyk, Radiopaedia.org, rID: 53104

  • Thickened endometrial strip; >5 mm in postmenopausal, >8 mm if currently using hormone replacement therapy or tamoxifen
  • Mass lesion
  • Intrauterine fluid accumulation
  • Invasion of the myometrium
