摘要: Diagnostic curettage has for many years been the method of choice to diagnose endometrial cancer in women with postmenopausal bleeding. The costs performed today are huge, and approximately only 10% this group will be diagnosed cancer. Thus less expansive techniques obtain samples have evaluated, but all them invasive. value endovaginal ultrasonography identifying abnormality not evaluated until now. This study used thickness as measured by an indicator abnormality. It was demonstrated 205 bleeding that if endometrium
