Abstract

Experience with ultrasonic scanning during the first 2 years of its use on a large obstetrics and gynecology service has been reviewed. The number of examinations has doubled in each successive 6-month period. At first, placenlal localization in patients with late pregnancybleeding was the most frequent indication for scanning. More recently, fetal measurement in complicated pregnancies and evaluation of pelvic masses have become the largest categories. Ultrasonic scanning has proved to be a useful diagnostic aid in many areas of obstelrics and gynecology.
