Abstract:

Ultrasound is an accessible and safe technique which is widely used in gynecology. The literature data on the intraoperative ultrasound investigation application in surgery and gynecology in particular are not numerous. The indications for the use of the intraoperative ultrasound investigation in the operative gynecology are considered in this article. The use of this technique enables to expand the limits of the performed surgeries and minimize the possible complications.
