The “White line sign”: A novel sonographic soft marker of pelvic endometriosis
Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.The “White line sign” represents thickening of the subperitoneal tissue overlying the anterior pouch of Douglas on transvaginal ultrasound. It demonstrated high specificity for detecting superficial endometriosis and high specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy for deep endometriosis. It was also reproducible and could be a useful soft ultrasound marker

Outcomes from blind versus ultrasound‐guided uterine evacuation: A retrospective cohort analysis
Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.There were low complication rates for blind and ultrasound‐guided uterine evacuations. However, ultrasound guidance was utilized for higher risk cases and significantly reduced the volume of retained tissue in complicated cases. The use of ultrasound guidance by doctors and sonographers for uterine evacuation is a compelling choice where available ...
