Gynecology - Ultrasound of the Normal Female Pelvis and Physiological Variations

Gynecology - Ultrasonography of the Normal Female Pelvis and Physiological Variations

The course offers the knowledge necessary to master the technique of abdominal and transvaginal pelvic ultrasound. The objective is to provide more precision and agility in identifying pathologies and abnormalities.

In gynecological emergencies, decisions must be made quickly, safely and accurately, due to the risk of worsening the patient's health and death. Identification of blood collections and abscesses is essential, for example, ruptured cysts and pelvic inflammatory disease, ovarian and adnexal torsion, pedunculated myoma, traumatic uterine perforation, birth fibroid and uterine inversion can also be diagnosed. Guidance for punctures of cysts, collections and drainage of abscesses in the cul-de-sac of Douglas can be easily performed using transvaginal ultrasound.

The course is supported by more than 40 years of work with obstetric and gynecological ultrasound at the USP Hospital das Clínicas complex. The program was created by Professor Ayrton Roberto Pastore, from the Department of Radiology and Oncology at HCFMUSP and brings together leading specialists from the largest hospital complex in America.
