Since a heartbeat should visualized in a 6 week fetal pole, sonography can "diagnose" an __________ __________as early as 6 weeks.
EMBRYONIC DEMISE
With a spontaneous abortion three months ago, endovaginal sonographic findings include the presence of a well-circumscribed fluid collection within the uterus that has a mean sac diameter of 10 mm. A small spherical structure is seen within fluid collection. The uterus is slightly enlarged, yet there are no other findings. What is the most likely diagnosis?
Normal Intra-Uterine Pregnancy @ 5 weeks
Sonographic demonstration of the "double decidual" sac sign on an early first trimester pregnancy ultrasound suggest __________.
Viable IUP
See question 25 on review look at picture:
Describe the structures seen in this ultrasound image.

Eight months ago, a patient reports to have had a miscarriage. Since then, her periods have not returned to normal and she has had a mild, brownish vaginal discharge. Her serum HCG levels are < 5 MIU/MT (negative)

Transabdominal sonography reveals a minimally enlarged uterus with brightly echogenic, endometrial cavity. Acoustic shadowing can be seen emanating from several areas of this mass. The findings are strongly suggestive of a (an)________.
Missed Abortion
What percentage of ectopic pregnancies occur in the fallopian tube?
95%
A 32-year-old is 15 weeks pregnant by her menstrual history. Her first pregnancy test was postive @ 6 weeks LNMP. Her most recent pregnancy test is negative. She reports vaginal bleeding and cramping. Sonography reveals a fluid-filled endometrial cavity containing echogenic debris.

This pattern most likely represents a (an) _____________
