Nowadays, B-ultrasound examination is a very common method for disease detection, especially for many gynecological diseases, which can be understood through B-ultrasound examination. However, many people are not familiar with the examination items of B-ultrasound, so currently some female friends with fallopian tube diseases are asking what can be seen in the fallopian tubes by B-ultrasound?
B-ultrasound cannot accurately detect blocked fallopian tubes, and other methods should be used to check for blocked fallopian tubes. The common method for examining fallopian tubes in clinical practice is to perform hysterosalpingography. Currently, traditional iodinated oil angiography can check the condition of the fallopian tubes, but it can easily cause tubal spasms, and there may be expansive pain in the uterine cavity. After this examination, it is necessary to avoid pregnancy for a period of time.
Under normal circumstances, the fallopian tubes cannot be seen by ultrasound. The fallopian tubes appear as elongated and curved abnormal tubes, providing a place for the fusion of eggs and sperm. Their function is to transport fertilized eggs. Most cases of blocked fallopian tubes are caused by surrounding inflammation and adhesions, and the blockage cannot be fully observed under ultrasound. In addition to using iodinated oil contrast imaging for examination, one can also choose to use iodinated iodine contrast imaging or perform three-dimensional color ultrasound hysterosalpingography.
Ultrasound examination of the fallopian tubes does not reveal the specific condition of the tubes, only the size of the ovaries, follicular development and ovulation, as well as the position of the uterus, endometrial thickness, and the presence of uterine fibroids and other accompanying diseases. There are many hospitals for infertility nowadays, and the examination equipment is relatively advanced, so if you suffer from infertility, you must choose a hospital carefully.
