Patient's question:
I have been trying to conceive for a long time but haven't been able to get pregnant. Recently, I went for a check-up and was told that I have hydrosalpinx. Is it serious? Please ask: What tests are needed to confirm hydrosalpinx?Doctor's answer:
1. MRI can confirm hydrosalpinx, but it can also reflect what appears on MRI. However, MRI only indicates liquid dark areas and cannot ultimately diagnose how the hydrosalpinx developed. But it will show irregular liquid dark areas on one side or both sides of the uterus in the acute phase, with abnormal echoes inside the tubes.2. Contrast examination Contrast examination is the simplest and most reliable method for diagnosing hydrosalpinx. X-ray manifestations show that the female fallopian tubes are fully exposed, and the fimbriae are dilated and extended rapidly, with delayed images showing residual shadows of bilateral fallopian tubes while no contrast agent is diffused in the pelvic cavity. Tubal hydrosalpinx is an easily occurring gynecological disease, and during medication.
