Vocal in Assessment of Endometrium in Postmenopause

October 1, 2018 updated by: Mahmoud Alalfy, Aljazeera Hospital

The Relation Between Endometrial Volume by 3D Vocal Ultrasound and Histopathology in Women With Postmenopausal Bleeding

The unbalanced estrogen with no progesterone will lead to endometrial thickening .This thickening result in endometrial hyperplasia & carcinoma and lead to irregular bleeding

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Recent advances in the screening and diagnosis of endometrial pathologies (eg,endometrial hyperplasia , endometrial carcinoma ,endometrial polyps and myomas ) are directed towards non invasive methods as Transvaginal ultrasound with 3 D application using different softwares .

One of the applications of 3D Transvaginal Ultrasonography is Vocal technique ( Virtual Organ Computer aided Analysis ) that can measure volume especially in tissues with irregular borders And this technology is considered to be superior than the conventional 2 D ultrasound . .
