Abstract

Transabdominal pelvic ultrasound plays a pivotal role in the evaluation of pediatric gynecologic pathology, such as Müllerian anomalies and intrauterine device (IUD) malposition. The diagnostic value of this examination can be significantly increased by adding three-dimensional (3D) images, which offer true coronal reconstructions and enhance anatomic detail. Increasing the yield of the examination has the potential to spare the patient discomfort, time, and/or cost. This pictorial essay explores the applications of this widely available, but underutilized, tool while providing embryologic context and pathologic background for some of the most consequential diagnoses radiologists must recognize.

探讨三维经腹盆腔超声的作用：图片回顾。

经腹盆腔超声在评估小儿妇科病理，如输卵管异常和宫内节育器（IUD）错位中起着关键作用。通过添加三维（3D）图像，可以提供真实的冠状面重建并增强解剖细节，从而显著提高该检查的诊断价值。提高检查率有可能减少患者的不适、时间和/或费用。这篇图片文章探讨了这种广泛可用但未充分利用的工具的应用，同时为一些最重要的诊断提供胚胎学背景和病理背景，放射科医生必须认识到。

期刊介绍： Official Journal of the European Society of Pediatric Radiology, the Society for Pediatric Radiology and the Asian and Oceanic Society for Pediatric Radiology Pediatric Radiology informs its readers of new findings and progress in all areas of pediatric imaging and in related fields. This is achieved by a blend of original papers, complemented by reviews that set out the present state of knowledge in a particular area of the specialty or summarize specific topics in which discussion has led to clear conclusions. Advances in technology, methodology, apparatus and auxiliary equipment are presented, and modifications of standard techniques are described. Manuscripts submitted for publication must contain a statement to the effect that all human studies have been reviewed by the appropriate ethics committee and have therefore been performed in accordance with the ethical standards laid down in an appropriate version of the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki. It should also be stated clearly in the text that all persons gave their informed consent prior to their inclusion in the study. Details that might disclose the identity of the subjects under study should be omitted.
