title: Transvaginal sonography.
abstract: Transvaginal sonography can overcome some of the inherent limitations of the transabdominal technique. Scanning with a transvaginal probe often provides increased resolution and greater patient comfort. This technique is likely to be employed more frequently in the future for the evaluation of numerous gynecologic problems.
