“…Only in 2 (13,3%) cases USS showed typical picture of PFTC, and experienced clinician could suspect and state correct diagnosis. Many authors report the similar [18,20]. But technical progress leads to improvement in diagnostics, especially after introduction of transvaginal and doppler energetic scanning.…”

The aim: To analyze contemporary practical means to improve diagnostics of primary fallopian tube cancer. Materials and methods: Authors analyzed specifics of clinical signs and anamnesis in 152 PFTC patients. Diagnostic capacity of cytological analysis of pathologic vaginal discharge, X-ray contrast methods of examination, sonography, tumor markers, and computed tomography was studied. Own results of PFTC diagnostics using different methods and world practice using MRI, PET-CT and laparoscopy were discussed. Results: Using own observations authors conclude that clinical analysis and complex use of the listed methods allows to mainly determine high risk group patients and set correct preoperative diagnosis in 35% and preliminary diagnosis in 20% of PFTC patients. Conclusions: Complex examination allows to recognize primary fallopian tube cancer on preoperative stage and to avoid inadequate surgical interventions in majority of PFTC patients.

“…For instance, US authors consider that this method allows correction between MRI and sonography. In 2005 visual atlas of HSG was published [4,18]. We still periodically use HSG, and this method, used together with other methods, often allows for early stage PFTC diagnostics [17].…”

“…The main imaging methods currently used to diagnose female infertility are hysterosalpingo contrast sonography (HyCoSy) [12], MR [13] and HSG [14]. Among these methods, HSG has the advantages of minimal trauma, low cost, convenience, clear results, and the ability to show tubal, uterine and pelvic adhesion at the same time; thus, it is widely used for assessing female infertility.…”

Objectives: To verify the feasibility of walking to shorten the time before obtaining delayed radiographs after iodized oil hysterosalpingography (HSG). Material and methods:One hundred women with infertility were selected for HSG from June 2018 to December 2018 at the Women's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University; the subjects were randomly divided into walking and control groups. The walking group was required to walk more than 12,000 steps within 6 hours after HSG, while the control group was prohibited from performing high-intensity exercise. The degree of pelvic adhesion was diagnosed with delayed radiographs acquired at 6 and 24 hours, and the diagnostic consistency of the radiographs at the two time points was evaluated.Results: No significant difference was observed in the baseline data between groups (p > 0.05). The delayed radiograph results in the walking group showed good agreement (p = 0.255 > 0.05, Kappa value 0.781 > 0.75), while those in the control group showed general agreement (p = 0.002 < 0.05, Kappa value 0.493 > 0.40 < 0.75). Conclusions:The time for acquiring delayed radiographs can be shortened by instructing patients to walk after HSG. This method improves the diagnostic efficiency of Iodized oil, saves time and costs, and may contribute to the popularization of HSG for female infertility screening, while offering good clinical application prospects.

“…During the examination, the doctor observes the flow of contrast on a live basis and carries out the examination in the form of documented X-ray images [1]. The result of the examination allows clinicians to recognize uterine malformations, possible obstruction of the oviducts or fistulas to neighboring organs [2,3]. The size of the dose area product (DAP) received during the HSG examination is affected by the Xray exposure time, beam length and the number of X-ray images taken.…”

Objective: Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is based on the administration of a shading agent to the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes using a Schulze apparatus. An X-ray beam (X) is then directed at the abdominal area of the patient and diagnostic images are obtained for evaluation. The radiation beam and its mode of administration have a decisive influence on the radiation dose to which the patient is exposed. The aim of this study was to determine the physical parameters of this exposure in such a way that the dose distribution during the HSG examination was the most beneficial for the patient. Materials and Methods: Measurements to evaluate the effect of exposure parameters on the quality of radiological images obtained during HSG in slim and obese patients were made in 216 repetitions of the standard HSG test. Additional research data was obtained from measurements made in the X-ray laboratory at the Clinical Hospital. Results: The comparison of all measurements made for experimental models simulating a slim and obese patient demonstrated that the dose distribution most advantageous for the patient is obtained for pulsations of an X-ray tube for PPS = 6, regardless of the thickness of the patient. Conclusions: The image quality and size of the radiation dose received during the HSG examination depends on the individual characteristics of the patient. During the measurements performed in order to compare the exposure conditions set by the automatic exposure control (AEC) system and the resulting dose, this study demonstrated that the dose distribution most advantageous for the patients is obtained for pulsations on an X-ray tube for PPS = 6, regardless of the thickness of the patient.
