Why 3D transvaginal ultrasound has been adopted into international guidance for fertility workup.
Global expert consensus now recognizes 3D transvaginal ultrasound as a first-line tool for evaluating the uterine cavity in patients with infertility and recurrent pregnancy loss.
3D scanning captures the coronal plane, allowing accurate assessment of the uterine outline and cavity shape. This is essential to identify Müllerian anomalies and dysmorphic uterus, which routine 2D scans frequently miss.
Accurate diagnosis of cavity-shape problems changes management: it may direct hysteroscopic correction, alter embryo-transfer planning, or explain prior implantation failures and miscarriages.
We routinely offer 3D-TVUS, often combined with SIS, as part of a thorough infertility workup at LIFE by Dr. Pat.
