What is the fallopian tube iodine oil contrast examination?

Patient's question:

Hello, I would like to ask what is tubal iodine oil contrast examination and what is its function? My colleague said it is used to check for blocked fallopian tubes.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, traditional iodine oil contrast. Excretion is slow, it can cause tubal adhesion, and it is necessary to avoid pregnancy for 3 months after surgery. If there is an accident during that month, treatment cannot be performed, and the patient will suffer. X-ray hysterosalpingography is a method of injecting contrast medium into the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes through a catheter, using an X-ray diagnostic instrument for X-ray fluoroscopy and radiography, and understanding whether the fallopian tubes are unobstructed, the location of blockage, and the shape of the uterine cavity based on the imaging of the contrast medium in the fallopian tubes and pelvic cavity.
