Patient's question:
I see that there are many items in the gynecological examination. What is the difference between hysteroscopy and fallopian tube contrast?Doctor's answer:
Hysterosalpingography (HSG) involves injecting a contrast dye into the uterine cavity through a catheter, and imaging the fallopian tubes and uterine cavity under X-ray. If there is a blockage, further examination and treatment are required. Hysteroscopy may be decided upon. Hysteroscopy is an endoscopic examination that uses a small mirror inserted through the vagina and cervix into the uterine cavity to observe the internal condition. It is time-efficient, causes less pain, and provides more direct and accurate observation.
