Gynecological color Doppler ultrasound can generally examine the cervix. This imaging technique allows assessment of the cervix’s width and length, and can clearly detect the presence of cysts or masses on the cervix. It also enables definitive diagnosis of conditions such as cervical inflammation, cervical cysts, and cervical fibroids. During a gynecological color Doppler ultrasound examination, it is essential to remain relaxed.
