研究概览
简要总结
This thesis protocol aims to compare the diagnostic efficacy of 3D transvaginal ultrasonography with diagnostic hysteroscopy in the evaluation of uterine abnormalities contributing to recurrent pregnancy loss and infertility. Conducted as a prospective comparative study at Kasturba Hospital, Delhi, it involves 39 women undergoing 3D TVS followed by hysteroscopy. 3D transvaginal ultrasonography, a less invasive technique is hypothesised to have diagnostic accuracy comparable to hysteroscopy in detecting uterine abnormalities in women with recurrent pregnancy loss and infertility. With ethical approval secured, this research seeks to help clinical decision making and optimise the diagnostic approach for women experiencing reproductive failure.
