Ultrasound
Pelvic ultrasounds and computed tomography are commonly in practice to identify the presence of endometriosis in females. It is important to understand that these diagnostic tests are not beneficial in identifying endometriosis severity in patients. The lesions in the pelvic area appear in multiple regions, which makes the diagnosis quite difficult. The doctor uses high-frequency waves of sound on the reproductive regions of your body. During the ultrasound test, the technician puts a transducer, a scanning wand, into the vagina or moves all the in across the patient’s belly. The ultrasound waves do not necessarily show the endometrial lesions all the time. Still, ultrasound is a good indicator of the disease as it shows the presence of lesions or cysts on the ovaries.
