Transvaginal Ultrasonography

Meaning

Transvaginal Ultrasonography is a medical imaging procedure employing high-frequency sound waves to generate real-time visual representations of the female pelvic organs. This diagnostic technique utilizes a specialized transducer, or probe, which is gently inserted into the vaginal canal, allowing for close proximity to the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and surrounding pelvic structures. The method offers superior resolution compared to transabdominal approaches for evaluating specific gynecological and early obstetric conditions.
