Abstract

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrine, metabolic, and reproductive condition in women that primarily affects those who are of reproductive age. Ultrasound plays an important part in the determination and diagnosis of polycystic ovaries. Hence, we explore the ultrasound features of this syndrome and try to improve its diagnostic criteria, providing an inexpensive, affordable diagnosis and establish guideline values of intra-ovarian arterial pulsatility and resistivity indices for diagnosing PCOS. The purpose of the current study is to describe the ultrasonographic features of polycystic ovaries & to assess the utility of intra-ovarian arterial Doppler study in diagnosing polycystic ovarian syndrome.
