However, the diagnosis can be difficult and even missed on transabdominal and grayscale imaging. Our study aims to assess the evaluation of endometrial polyps on transvaginal color Doppler. Patients and methodsA prospective study with performance of transvaginal Doppler and saline infusion sonohysterography with histopathological correlation. ResultsThe pedicle artery sign on transvaginal color Doppler sonography was found to have sensitivity of 86.67%, accuracy of 86.67% and positive predictive value of 100%.
