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

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.

• 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

• 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

• 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

• 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

• 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

• 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

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

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

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

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.

• 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

• 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)
