Copper -T (IUCD)

Visualizing the IUCD or intra-uterine contraceptive device by sonography is perhaps the easiest and best way to determine if the IUCD is in its proper location. Normally, the copper-T should be seen with its horizontal arm in the fundus and the vertical part of the T in the body of uterus (within the uterine cavity). The ultrasound images below show the normally located IUCD

The dense white stripe seen in the uterine cavity, is the IUCD, seen in both transverse and sagittal planes.
These videos show the method of scanning the uterus to detect the IUCD:

  
Problems with IUCD or IUD (intra-uterine devices) include, migration of the IUCD/ IUD through the wall of the uterus (ie: the myometrium), to enter the wall of the uterus, by literally piercing the uterine wall, over a period of time. Other complications include infection/ sepsis of the uterus. Ultrasound imaging helps to detect all these problems accurately. Where needed, a transvaginal scan of the uterus and pelvis can help exclude such complications. In rare cases, the IUCD/ IUD might be found within the pelvis, outside the uterus.

Adenomyosis of the uterus

The uterus has two parts, functionally speaking, the endometrium (or the inner lining of the uterus) and the myometrium (the thick muscular wall of the uterus). During menses, a part of the endometrial lining is shed along with the menstrual blood. In women with adenomyosis there is ectopic (abnormally located) endometrial tissue located deep inside the wall of the uterus (myometrium). This ectopic (adenomyotic tissue) also undergoes menstrual bleeding resulting in severe pain within the wall of the uterus (dysmenorrhea). Many experts believe that adenomyosis is one of the leading causes of pain during menses in women. These ultrasound and color Doppler videos show marked congestion (increased vascularity) within the hyperechoic lesion in the posterior wall of the body of the uterus. This lesion represents the site of adenomyosis.

This is a transvaginal gray ultrasound video (above) showing the inhomogenous hyperechoic area in the posterior wall of the myometrium in the body of the uterus (arrows).
The color Doppler video below shows hypervascularity in the lesion:
  
This ultrasound and color Doppler video shows a transverse section of the uterus, panning the probe from superior to the inferior part of the uterus.(see below).

   
The adenomyotic lesion is seen to compress upon the endometrial stripe also, adding to the woes of the patient.
Lastly this Power Doppler video further shows the increased vascularity/ hyperemia of the entire uterus, besides that of the adenomyotic lesion.

How to Tell the Difference between Simple Kidney Cyst and Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)

  Polycystic Kidney Disease is a genetic disease. according to the genetic characteristics, on hand are going to be two major forms: autosomal dominant inheritance, that is ADPKD furthermore autosomal recessive inheritance, conjointly referred to as infantile polycystic renal disease. And autosomal dominant inheritance is a lot of common, which is characterized as familial aggregation. about one-half of folks with the most common kind of PKD progress to kidney failure, conjointly referred to as end-stage renal disease (ESRD).  Autosomal dominant Polycystic kidney disease is the most common inherited form. Symptoms usually mature between the a long time of 30 in addition to 40, but they can begin earlier, even in childhood. About 90 percent of all PKD cases are autosomal dominant PKD. The cysts grow out of nephrons, the little filtering units inside the kidneys. The cysts eventually split from the nephrons and continue to enlarge. the overall kidneys enlarge along with the cysts–which can number in the thousands–while roughly retaining their kidney shape. In fully progressed autosomal dominant PKD, a cyst-filled kidney can weigh as much as 20 to 30 pounds. High blood force is common and develops in most patients by age 20 or 30.  Autosomal recessive PKD serves as a rare inherited form. Symptoms of autosomal recessive PKD begin in the earliest months of life, even in the womb. PKD can also cause cysts in the liver and problems in other organs, such whilst blood vessels in the overall brain and heart. The number of cysts as well as the complications they cause facilitate doctors distinguish PKD up of the usually harmless “simple” cysts that frequently type in the kidneys in later years of life.  While straightforward kidney cysts always appear to people higher than 50 years old, and are going to be came across by way of ultrasound in the routine physical examination. the general simple kidney cyst will be able to be at least one or more, they may appear at one kidney or both kidneys. The size of the cysts may vary differently, some can be only several mms, furthermore some will exceed 10 cm. Simple kidney cysts will no longer pass down to the subsequent generation.  Most often, simple cysts do not cause symptoms or harm the general kidney. In some cases, however, ache can occur when cysts enlarge and press on other organs. usually cysts become infected or suddenly begin to bleed. less regularly the cysts impair kidney function. individuals with simple cysts will be often found to have high blood pressure.
