Get a USG TVS (Transvaginal Ultrasound) at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, an  NABL & NABH Accredited Diagnostic Centre, Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy. A special type of diagnostic test called a Transvaginal Ultrasound (TVS) is done using high-frequency sound waves to look at the uterus, the ovary, the cervix, and other pelvic structures and tissues. It provides a comprehensive view of the female reproductive system and may be helpful if a doctor suspects that a woman has problems with her pelvis, abnormal bleeding, irregular periods, or other genital problems.

About USG TVS

Transvaginal Ultrasound (USG TVS), also called TVS, is a specialized ultrasound procedure that uses a small ultrasound probe that is carefully inserted into the vagina to get detailed images of the pelvic organs. The probe is placed near the uterus and the ovary, and thus is better able to produce images of these organs in many cases compared to an ultrasound of the abdomen. It can be recommended to examine the uterus, endometrium, ovary, and other pelvic organs. It can also be used, when clinically appropriate, in early pregnancy.

What is USG TVS?

In such a non-invasive diagnostic imaging method, called USG TVS also known as Transvaginal ultrasound of the female pelvic organs, high-frequency ultrasound waves are actually used in a way to obtain real-time images of the pelvic female organs. It suggests the size, shape, location, and appearance of the uterus and the ovaries. It can help identify ovarian cysts, uterine fibroids, and abnormalities in the thickness or appearance of the endometrium, as well as other conditions in the pelvis ( pelvic area). May also help in assessing problems during pregnancy - especially early pregnancy, or some types of pelvic pain, or irregular periods. USG TVS does not contain any radiation. This exam is extremely well tolerated, although some may be somewhat uncomfortable.

Common Reasons for USG TVS

• Pelvic Pain: If the pain continues or the pain cannot be explained, they will help in determining its cause.
• Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: May be useful when trying to diagnose possible causes of abnormal bleeding (heavy, irregular, or unexpected bleeding).
• Menstrual Irregularities: Can be used to evaluate some menstrual and reproductive conditions.
• Ovarian Cysts: Identifies and evaluates any abnormal conditions or cysts in the ovary.
• Uterine Fibroids: Gives details about the size, location, and appearance of uterine fibroids.
• Endometrial Assessment: Looks at the thickness and appearance of the inside lining of the uterus.
• Use of Early Pregnancy Assessment: May recommend early pregnancy assessment, when indicated.
• Suspected abnormalities of the ovary and uterus: Helps to investigate certain abnormalities of the ovary and uterus.
• Follow-Up Examinations: May be done to monitor prior gynaecological problems and/or to exclude changes following therapy.

Conditions Evaluated

Uterine Abnormalities

The size, shape, and position of the uterus can be evaluated with the USG TVS service. It can identify, for example, structural changes, like uterine fibroids, which should be assessed clinically.

Ovarian Cysts and Abnormalities

May be useful with their ability to give detailed information about the ovary and assist in the discrimination of ovarian cysts and enlarged ovary from other abnormal conditions affecting the ovary and the fallopian tubes.

Endometrial Abnormalities

The thickness and appearance of the inside of the uterus are evaluated during transvaginal ultrasound. May be helpful in the investigation of menorrhagia and other uterine abnormalities.

Pelvic Pain and Discomfort

USG TVS could be useful in the evaluation of some of the selected causes of pelvic pain by the review of the uterus, the vagina, and other structures within the pelvis. Evaluated using clinically appropriate means, history, and symptoms.

Early Pregnancy Assessment

USG TVS helps to evaluate an early pregnancy, including early developmental findings when clinically indicated, which includes evaluating the location of the pregnancy. Additional imaging or other testing might be needed depending on the clinical situation.

Infertility Evaluation

May be used in an infertility evaluation to check the uterus, the lining of the uterus, and the ovaries. Other tests may be required as needed per clinical requirements.

Pelvic Masses

In some cases, masses associated with and surrounding the uterus, pelvic area and/ or the ovary can be detected and characterized with the help of USG TVS. Diagnostic workup may be indicated as above.
