Patient's question:
I feel a bit uncomfortable in my abdomen, and then my white discharge has also become particularly abundant recently. It feels quite uncomfortable, so I want to go to the hospital for a transvaginal ultrasound. How deep does the transvaginal ultrasound probe need to go?Doctor's answer:
The transcervical probe has a diameter of 1 to 1.5 cm and an insertion length of 15 to 20 cm. The probe and external extension are, of course, in addition to the lubricant, to facilitate a thorough examination. This instrument has a very small probe, and it generally does not cause discomfort. Transvaginal MRI is a significant advancement in the use of MRI in gynecology and obstetrics in recent years. It clearly demonstrates the anatomical structures of pelvic organs in women. Compared to traditional transabdominal MRI, it does not require bladder filling and offers early and accurate diagnosis for normal and abnormal pregnancies as well as gynecological diseases.
