Abstract

Ultrasound is the imaging study of choice for detection and full characterization of early pregnancies based on its accuracy, low cost, safety profile, and abundant availability. This article reviews the goals and utility of first-trimester ultrasound in gestation localization, viability determination, and abnormal pregnancies, including ectopic implantation, retained products, and molar pregnancy.

  • Transvaginal ultrasound offers superior resolution for early gestational structures when transabdominal imaging is inconclusive.

    “Both transvaginal and transabdominal approaches can be utilized, with transvaginal ultrasound offering superior resolution for early gestational structures when transabdominal imaging is inconclusive [3].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
