A2 - Feller-Kopman, David PY - 2011 T2 - Handbook of Critical Care and Emergency Ultrasound AB - Pelvic ultrasound was first introduced into the acute care setting to answer simple yes or no questions such as "Is there an intrauterine pregnancy?" Pelvic ultrasound applications in the emergency setting have now expanded to include the nonpregnant patient. The improvement in skills now allows the clinician to evaluate for other pelvic pathology such as adnexal cysts or masses, ovarian torsion, fibroids, or tuboovarian abscesses.
