CA-125: What is it good for?
David Holtz, MD , January 10, 2012

Joe Antony, MD. Consultant Radiologist , November 7, 2011

One of the problems with sonography of the early pregnancy is the inability to clearly determine if the gestation sac is intrauterine or extrauterine (ectopic) in nature. This task is even more complicated by the controversies arising from whether the “sac” seen is a true sac or a pseudosac of ectopic pregnancy.

Orit Avni-Barron, MD. , October 25, 2011

She just paged you again. It is “urgent”, just like the last 5 times.

Hemorrhagic Ovarian Cyst: A Sonographic Perspective
Joe Antony, M.D. , October 9, 2011

The corpus luteum is lined by a layer of granulose cells which rapidly become vascularized; some of these thin-walled vessels can rupture. This causes bleeding into the corpus luteum, resulting in the formation of a hemorrhagic cyst of the ovary.
