3D Ultrasound Measurement of Junctional Zone Thickness and Its Relation to Implantation Success

Completed

• Conditions: Infertility
• Interventions: Radiation: 3D ultrasound

• Registration Number: NCT02362061
• Lead Sponsor: Cairo University

Brief Summary

100 patients aged 21-40 years old, diagnosed as primary or secondary infertility . These patients are then assigned to receive fertility treatment (ovulation induction, ICSI, intrauterine insemination and IVF).

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
pregnant	3D ultrasound	These patients are then assigned to receive fertility treatment (ovulation induction, ICSI, intrauterine insemination and IVF). They undergo a 3D vaginal ultrasound before treatment to measure the junctional zone thickness and followed up after treatment to determine the rate of implantation and they became pregnant
Non pregnant	3D ultrasound	These patients are then assigned to receive fertility treatment (ovulation induction, ICSI, intrauterine insemination and IVF). They undergo a 3D vaginal ultrasound before treatment to measure the junctional zone thickness and followed up after treatment to determine the rate of implantation and they remained non pregnant
