What is Abdomen-Pelvis TVS Ultrasound Scan?

How Transvaginal Ultrasound Differs from Abdominal Ultrasound

A transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) places a slim, sterile probe a few inches into the vagina, positioning the camera millimetres from pelvic organs. This yields images up to three times sharper than an abdominal scan, where the probe stays on the belly.

Technology Used

  • High-frequency probe (5–10 MHz) for near-microscopic detail
  • 3D/4D imaging upgrade for depth and surface views
  • Doppler mode to map blood flow in real time

Types of Abdomen-Pelvis TVS Ultrasound Scan

  1. 2D TVS (standard)
    High-resolution black-and-white images for routine checks.
  2. 3D/4D TVS (enhanced detail)
    Adds depth and motion—ideal for uterine anomalies or complex cysts.
  3. Doppler TVS (blood-flow assessment)
    Measures blood supply to ovaries or a gestational sac to rule out complications.

List of Parameters

  • Uterus: size, shape, position, and any fibroids or polyps
  • Endometrium: thickness and texture across the cycle
  • Ovaries: volume, follicle count, cyst morphology
  • Pouch of Douglas: checks for free fluid that may signal infection or rupture
  • Early pregnancy: gestational sac, yolk sac, fetal pole, heartbeat

Why This Test

  • Unexplained pelvic pain or dysmenorrhea
  • Infertility work-up to count antral follicles or check tubal patency
  • Suspected ectopic pregnancy
  • Abnormal bleeding after menopause or between periods

When to Take Test

  • Women with pelvic pain or irregular bleeding
  • Couples undergoing an infertility work-up
  • Pregnant patients ≤12 weeks for viability, dating, and heartbeat check
  • Post-menopausal women experiencing unexpected bleeding

Benefits

Benefits of Taking the Abdomen-Pelvis TVS Ultrasound Scan

  • Closer, clearer images than abdominal scans
  • No full bladder required—empty bladder just before the test
  • Same-day digital report with secure cloud access and shareable link

Illnesses Diagnosed with Abdomen-Pelvis TVS Ultrasound Scan

  • Endometriosis lesions
  • PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome)
  • Ovarian torsion or cyst rupture
  • Uterine anomalies like bicornuate or septate uterus
  • Fibroids and polyps
  • Early pregnancy complications—blighted ovum, missed miscarriage

Preparing for test

  • No fasting required—eat normally
  • Empty bladder right before the scan for comfort
  • Inform staff if you have latex allergy; we use non-latex probe covers

Pre-requisites Abdomen-Pelvis TVS Ultrasound Scan

  • Signed consent form
  • Disclose sexual activity status (transvaginal route may be adjusted)
  • Recent pregnancy test if you suspect early pregnancy

Best Time to Take the Abdomen-Pelvis TVS Ultrasound Scan

  • Days 5–10 of the menstrual cycle for fertility studies (baseline endometrium & follicles)
  • Any time for acute pain, heavy bleeding, or pregnancy concerns

Eligibility

  • Sexually active women—standard transvaginal route
  • Virgins or patients who decline vaginal insertion—trans-rectal or trans-abdominal alternative offered

Procedure for Taking a Abdomen-Pelvis TVS Ultrasound Scan

  1. Position & Probe Insertion
    Lie on the exam couch with knees bent; a covered probe is gently inserted 2–3 inches.
  2. Image Acquisition & Annotation
    The radiologist captures multiple planes and labels key structures in real time.
  3. Cleaning & Next Steps
    Probe is disinfected; you receive printed and digital copies of the report.

Caution Before Taking the Test

  • Defer if active pelvic infection or unexplained bleeding disorder
  • Notify technician about IUD presence—the scan will not dislodge it, but we note its position

Test Results

Results and Interpretations

Finding / ObservationDescription General Interpretation / Significance
Endometrial thickness4–8 mm (proliferative phase)Normal cycle
Cyst diameter<3 cm, thin wallLikely functional
Cyst diameter>3 cm or solid areasMay need follow-up or MRI
Free fluidSmall amountPhysiological
Free fluidModerate to largePossible rupture or infection
Yolk sacSeen at 5.5 weeksConfirms intrauterine pregnancy

Risks & Limitations

  • No radiation risk—safe for pregnancy and repeated use
  • Mild discomfort similar to a Pap smear, lasting seconds
  • Limited view if a patient is not sexually active or prefers an abdominal route (alternative scans available)

FAQs

Is the scan painful?

Only brief, mild discomfort—less than a Pap smear.

How long does it take?

10–20 minutes from start to finish.

Can I drive after?

Yes, no sedation is used.

Will it affect my IUD?

No, the probe does not disturb the device.

Is it safe in early pregnancy?

Absolutely—TVS is the gold standard for first-trimester imaging.

Do I need a referral?

A doctor’s note is preferred, but walk-ins are welcome.
