Virtual hysterosalpingography and hysteroscopy: assessment of uterine cavity and fallopian tubes using 64-detector computed tomography data sets

Fertil Steril. 2010 May 1;93(7):2383-4. doi: 10.1016/j.fertnstert.2009.05.027. Epub 2009 Jun 25.

Abstract

Hysterosalpingography is the primary technique in providing coarse information on the morphology of endometrial cavity and fallopian tubes. In this preliminary study, 64-detector computed tomography was used for three-dimensional imaging of endometrium and fallopian tubes.
