Vaginal ultrasonography
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
(Redirected from Transvaginal ultrasound)
Vaginal ultrasonography is a medical ultrasonography that applies an ultrasound transducer (or "probe") in the vagina to visualize organs within the pelvic cavity. It is also called transvaginal ultrasonography because the ultrasound waves go across the vaginal wall to study tissues beyond it.

It is preferred over abdominal ultrasonography in the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy.[1]
