title: [Ultrasound in the study of the functional dynamics of the female genitalia].
abstract: The Authors have carried out this survey aiming at having at their disposal biometric indexes to be used in the dynamic and functional study of the female genitalia, since the purely anatomic data cannot be correlated white absolute certainty to the ultrasound data. The survey has been carried out on 42 women of an age between early childhood and late menopause. The patients in their fertile age were examined every other day, from the 10th day of the menstrual cycle; women in menopause or in their pre-puberal age were examined only once, to a total of 158 scans. In each woman the linear and volumetric measurement of the uterus, ovary, ovarian follicle and of the tube has been studied. The results were in conformity with those already reported in the literature.
