Abstract

Ultrasound has represented an important tool in the diagnosis of gynecological pathologies. With the addition of Doppler color these possibilities have improved. Doppler color gives us the opportunity to know the vascular pattern of certain pathologies, and through the wave flow spectral analysis we know the velocity and the resistance of certain waves in various diseases. Doppler color and transvaginal ultrasound allow a level of understanding and diagnosis of pelvic physiology and pathology. In this article we review advances in three specific fields: study of the menstrual cycle and infertility; differential diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy; and diagnosis of malignancy in ovarian tumors.
