Image for Transperineal ultrasound

Transperineal ultrasound

Transperineal ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize structures in the pelvic area, particularly the muscles, organs, and tissues located between the genitals and the anus. The probe is placed on the perineum (the area between the genitals and the anus) to send sound waves that create detailed images. It’s commonly used to assess pelvic floor function, diagnose conditions like urinary or fecal incontinence, and guide treatments. The procedure is safe, painless, and provides valuable information for medical evaluation without the need for incisions or radiation.
