Hysterosalpingograph

Hysterosalpingography is an X-ray examination method that is used for the diagnosis and treatment of gynecological diseases. It is based on the introduction of a contrast agent into the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes, which is then excreted through the fallopian tubes into the abdominal cavity. This allows visualization of the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes and other pelvic organs.

Hysterosalpingography is performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia. The procedure takes about 20-30 minutes. The patient is in a supine position with knees bent. A thin catheter with a balloon at the end is inserted through the vagina and cervix into the uterine cavity. A contrast agent is then injected into the canister, after which it slowly moves through the tube into the abdominal cavity. In this case, the X-ray image shows how the contrast agent passes through the tubes and exits into the abdominal cavity.

After the procedure, the patient may experience abdominal discomfort and pain in the pelvic area, which disappears after a few days. In rare cases, allergic reactions to the contrast agent are possible.

Hysterosalpingography is one of the most informative methods for diagnosing gynecological diseases such as endometriosis, adhesions, tubal obstruction, and pelvic tumors. It is used to determine the cause of infertility, identify the causes of ectopic pregnancy, and assess the condition of the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes before IVF.

However, it should be noted that hysterosalpingography may be contraindicated in the presence of inflammatory processes in the pelvis, acute infectious diseases, pregnancy and lactation. In addition, this procedure can cause discomfort and discomfort in patients, especially in the presence of adhesions or endometriosis.

In general, hysterosalpingography remains one of the most effective methods for diagnosing and treating many gynecological diseases and is an important tool in the work of a gynecologist.

A hysterosalpygograph is a specialized medical device that is used to examine a woman’s internal genital organs and identify various pathologies in the early stages. It is designed to obtain visual information about the condition of the fallopian tubes, uterus and ovaries, as well as to diagnose developmental abnormalities and pathologies of the endometrium (inner layer of the uterus).

Hysterosalpygography is performed using a thin tube that is inserted into the uterine cavity and allows you to obtain a detailed image of the genital organs. The procedure takes place under anesthesia and takes no more than 15-20 minutes. The resulting images are examined by specialists who identify possible anomalies and pathologies based on changes in the configuration and structure of internal organs.
