TVS Ultrasound – Safe, Detailed & Accurate Pelvic Imaging
At Akshar Imaging Centre, we provide advanced TVS Ultrasound in Ahmedabad to evaluate female pelvic organs with high precision. Transvaginal Ultrasound (TVS) is a specialized, non-invasive and radiation-free imaging technique that delivers detailed real-time images of the uterus, ovaries, cervix, and surrounding pelvic structures.
Our expert radiologists use high-resolution transvaginal probes to help gynecologists and physicians accurately diagnose pelvic abnormalities, monitor ovarian follicles, assess infertility, or detect early gynecological conditions.
What Is a TVS Ultrasound?
A TVS Ultrasound involves inserting a small, high-frequency probe into the vagina to capture close, clear images of the female reproductive system. It allows doctors to examine the uterus, endometrium, ovaries, fallopian tubes, cervix, and adjacent structures in greater detail than a standard abdominal ultrasound.
It is particularly useful for evaluating pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, infertility, ovarian cysts, fibroids, and early pregnancy. The procedure is safe, comfortable, and provides immediate insights for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
Why It’s Performed / Common Indications
- Evaluation of pelvic pain or discomfort
- Investigation of abnormal menstrual bleeding or irregular periods
- Detection of uterine fibroids, polyps, or adenomyosis
- Assessment of ovarian cysts, masses, or tumors
- Monitoring follicular development for fertility treatments
- Early pregnancy evaluation and detection of ectopic pregnancy
- Investigating infertility or hormonal imbalances
- Assessment of the endometrial lining
- Guidance for gynecological procedures such as IUI or IVF
Preparation
- No fasting is usually required.
- A partially empty bladder is recommended (unlike abdominal ultrasound, full bladder is not needed).
- Wear comfortable clothing or a gown for the scan.

Procedure
- You will lie on the examination bed with your knees bent and feet positioned comfortably.
- A thin, lubricated transvaginal probe is gently inserted into the vagina.
- The radiologist moves the probe to capture high-resolution images of the uterus, ovaries, and surrounding pelvic structures.
- The scan is usually painless and takes about 15–20 minutes.
- Images are reviewed in real-time, and measurements are taken as needed.
What Happens Next (Interpretation)
- Size, shape, and position of the uterus and ovaries
- Presence of cysts, fibroids, polyps, or masses
- Endometrial thickness and abnormalities
- Signs of early pregnancy or ectopic pregnancy
- Pelvic fluid collections or inflammation
