Description

The use of high-frequency resolution ultrasound machines in the clinical practice and, particularly, high-frequency transvaginal probes, has permitted the study of the initial phases of the morphological development of the embryo and to detect possible pathologies. The diagnostic potential of TVS ultrasound is very high in the first weeks of embryonic development, but the operator needs a good knowledge of the processes of embryonic morphogenesis and the varying ultrasound findings that can be found in the first weeks of pregnancy. An ultrasound examination in the first trimester can also provide useful information in order to predict the risk of miscarriage. The elements on which such a prognosis is based are many.
