Summary

Ultrasound has been used as a guide during gynaecological operative procedures, in addition to the role in diagnostic testing. In the field of gynaecology, some of the interventions, especially intrauterine procedures, are carried out without imaging guidance or with limited view, and are performed based on clinical skills and experience alone. Operative ultrasound provides concurrent visualization of the structures and contents and, therefore, has the potential to improve efficacy and safety of the operative interventions.
