- Air in the uterus: Hyperechoic dots and lines
- Dirty posterior acoustic shadowing
- Hypoechoic fluid in Cul-de-Sac
Cervicitis:
- Infection/inflammation of the cervix
- Heterogeneous enlarged cervix
Hydrosalpinx:
- Dilated fallopian Tube
- Hypoechoic dilated fluid filled structure outside the uterus and ovary
- Internal septations or indentations in dilated fallopian tube
- Sausage shaped hypoechoic fluid filled structure
Pyosalpinx:
