AB Several  technical  advances  in  recent  decades  currently  allow  superb  imaging  of  female  pelvic  structures.  As  a  result,  use  of  sonography  in  gynecology  now  equals  that  in  obstetrics.  Enhancements  to  traditional  sonography  continue  to  fill  important  clinical  gaps.  For  example,  technical  refinements  now  allow  three-dimensional  (3-D)  imaging  to  rival  the  roles  of  computed  tomography  (CT)  and  magnetic  resonance  (MR)  imaging  for  many  conditions.  In  addition,  application  of  MR  imaging  now  includes  MR-guided  high-intensity  focused-ultrasound  therapy,  used  for  uterine  leiomyomas.
