Abstract
With unwanted infertility on the rise, the radiologist is becoming increasingly involved both in the diagnosis and treatment of these patients. Assessment of the six most common factors causing infertility should be performed during the initial clinical evaluation. These six factors include the cervical factor, endometrial-uterine factor, tubal factor, ovarian factor, peritoneal factor, and male factor. Each of these groups will be discussed in detail with special attention to optimal methods of diagnosis. Hysterosalpingography and ultrasound play the major roles in evaluation; however, there is an important emerging role for newer techniques such as MRI and selective fallopian tube catheterization.
