Is it convenient to perform a 3D ultrasound before IVF?

By Marta Barranquero Gómez B.Sc., M.Sc. (embryologist).

Yes, 3D ultrasound would provide more information about the uterine cavity. This would allow a better assessment of the anatomy of the uterus, as well as the ovaries and fallopian tubes. In this way and thanks to 3D ultrasound, malformations in the uterus could be detected, such as bicornuate uterus or T-shaped uterus, which could perhaps be overlooked in a traditional ultrasound.
