METHOD OF DIAGNOSING CHANGES IN MYOMETRIUM Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC A61B8/10 A61K33/40 

FIELD: medicine; radiological diagnostics.

SUBSTANCE: method can be used for diagnosing endometriosis of uterus and for estimating state of post-operational scars of myometrium as well as for visualizing bases of subserous and submucous myomatous uterus nodes. Uterus cavity is filled with contrast matter. Hydrogen peroxide solution is used as contrast matter in non-toxic amount; solution is injected in bolus dosing. Before injection sizes of uterus cavity are measured additionally and expected limiting volume V of filling of uterus cavity is calculated from relation of V=0,1a₁h², where h is length of uterus cavity, and a₁ is width of uterus cavity at bottom of uterus. In accordance with expected limiting volume of filling, amount of injected echo-contrast matter is chosen while taking its rejection along uterus tubes into account. Uterus cavity is filled in dosage-by-dosage to make sure that there is no drainage of matter trough uterus neck and limiting volume of filling of cavity is kept. Appearance of echo-contrast matter is scars of myometrium, in myometrium, onto parietal and visceral peritoneum is estimated at moment of injection of contrast matter or later.

EFFECT: improved precision of inspection.
