The Role of Duplex Ultrasound in the Pelvic Congestion Syndrome Workup.

Abstract

The diagnosis of pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS) is primarily based upon clinical findings that are often confirmed by imaging studies. Up to now, PCS imaging workup algorithms are not well-defined. The purpose of our study is to gauge the impact and accuracy of duplex ultrasound (DU) to assist in the diagnosis of PCS.
