| Hysterosonography, hysteroscopy or MRI may be prescribed when the ultrasound results are difficult to interpret, when there is infertility or when a doubt persists as to the nature of the tumour. |
| Clinically significant gas or air embolism is a rare complication of hysteroscopy. |
| During a hysteroscopy, the patient will probably be given a local anesthetic. |
| The commonest indication for hysteroscopy is the investigation of abnormal uterine bleeding. |
| Thus, some of the complications of hysteroscopy carry significant morbidity and possible mortality. |
| The specialist-to-be should not be the slave of technique, such as colposcopy, hysteroscopy or laparoscopy. |
