As a home health nurse, I had a patient yesterday show me her ultrasound report & ask me to explain it to her, as she didn't understand what her doctor had told her. I had no idea what that report meant. She has had had fibroids for years & has them checked yearly by U/S. This year they were concerned about the endrometrium being thickened. Biopsy was performed & was negative. A saline ultrasound was performed which showed no thickened endrometrium. But, did showed "the echogenic area of irregular shape, thought to be intracavitary on prior scan is actually located in the left anterior wall. This area shows irregular texture, is well demarcated from surrounding uterine tissue, but is irregular shape and contour." Can you help me explain these results to her? (her physician is currently out of town)

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
