Accuracy of saline contrast sonohysterography in detection of endometrial polyps and submucosal leiomyoma in women at reproductive age with abnormal uterine bleeding: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: Two dimensional saline contrast sonohysterography proved to be a highly sensitive method for detection of endometrial polyps and submucous uterine leiomyoma making it a potential first line diagnostic method in the work-up for women with abnormal uterine bleeding. More studies are necessary for conclusion on 3D saline contrast sonohysterography during the reproductive period.
