Have Ultrasound Report. Can Any Online Doctor Help Me To Explain It?

My doctor won t return my call to explain my ultrasound results. So I pulled it off Mychart can some please explain this to me. A negative hCG would exclude a pregnancy if this is a clinical concern Does this mean there is a possibility I could be pregnant? Here are my ultrasound results: Transabdominal examination was performed for overall assessment ofthe uterus and adnexal regions. Transvaginal ultrasound wassubsequently performed for additional visualization of theendometrium, myometrium , ovaries, and adnexa. The uterus is anteverted measuring approximately 7 x 4 x 3.5 cm, 53cc. The endometrial echocomplex measures 11-12 mm in thickness withsecretory phase appearance. The sensitivity for detection of focalendometrial abnormality during the secretory phase is not high, butthe endometrial interface appears intact with single layerendometrial thickness approximately 5-6 mm and no focal lesion isseen. No uterine myomata are evident. Repeat evaluation on day 6-10of the menstrual cycle would be helpful. The right ovary measures approximately 3.4 x 2.7 x 2 cm, 9 cc. Theleft ovary measures approximately 2.1 x 1.9 x 1.5 cm, 3 cc. Noadnexal masses or fluid collections are evident. A negative hCGwould exclude a pregnancy if this is a clinical concern.

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
Hi Mr.Sudeep, thanks for writing to HCM. From your description, it looks like you might have injured either meniscus (soft cushion present between the two bones) or the cruciate ligaments (which provide stability to the joint) of your knee. The only way to precisely diagnose these problems is by undergoing MRI scan. The severity of these injuries dictates the mode of treatment, which will be decided by the orthopedic surgeon. Remember, not all injuries of meniscus/cruciate ligaments needs surgical intervention. Hope this helps
