Can ovarian cysts be detected with transvaginal ultrasound?

1. Vaginal ultrasound, also known as vaginal B-ultrasound, also known as intracavitary B-ultrasound, is a method of ultrasound diagnosis by inserting the B-ultrasound probe into the vagina or rectum. It is particularly suitable for observing pelvic organs in the small pelvis. Compared with abdominal B-ultrasound, vaginal ultrasound images are clearer and more realistic, the results are more accurate, and the examinee does not need to "hold urine". It is particularly suitable for ovulation monitoring, diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy, uterine space-occupying diseases, and diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome and chocolate cysts.

2. For those who have had sexual intercourse, a vaginal examination can be performed, and for virgins, a rectal ultrasound examination can be performed.

3. Vaginal B-ultrasound can see more clearly than abdominal B-ultrasound because it is closer, there is no need to consider other interferences such as abdominal fat, and there is no need to hold urine.

4. The simplest and most practical diagnostic method. It can detect the location, size, and shape of the mass, indicate whether it is cystic or solid, whether there are papillae in the cyst, and distinguish ovarian tumors, ascites, and encapsulated effusions. The clinical diagnosis conformity rate is >90%, but it is difficult to measure if the diameter is less than 25px. At the same time, ultrasound Doppler scanning can measure the blood flow changes of the ovaries and their new tissues, which is helpful for diagnosis.
