Media and delivery systems.
Distention media are necessary for panoramic and operative hysteroscopy. The ability to see the uterine cavity and perform operative procedures under direct vision are the major advantages of hysteroscopy. The hysteroscopic surgeons' operative capacity is enhanced or restricted by the choice and effective use of distending media and their delivery systems.
