Transvaginal strain elastography with Doppler. We assess the stiffness of uterine and ovarian tissue and distinguish a fibroid from adenomyosis.
Sonoelastography is an ultrasound method that assesses the elasticity (stiffness) of tissue. In strain mode, we see how an area of the uterus or ovary deforms under light pressure from the probe: soft structures shift more, dense ones less. Combined with Doppler, we record the nature of the blood supply to a nodule/cyst — this helps distinguish, for example, a fibroid from adenomyosis and clarify the risk of active growth.
On the left — reasons for prescription. On the right — what the examination reveals.
The examination is performed with a transvaginal probe. First a standard ultrasound, then elastography and Doppler. The procedure is painless and lasts 15–25 minutes. A disposable kit is provided at the patient‘s request.
No special preparation is required. An empty bladder is preferable. The optimal days are days 5–10 of the cycle (if there are no urgent indications).
The method does not replace histology. In case of ambiguous findings, a biopsy / hysteroscopy may be required.
The report indicates zones of increased/decreased elasticity, the type of blood flow, and recommendations on management (monitoring, further examination, consultation with a gynecologist).
