Dr. Steven R Goldstein MD is a Sonohysterogram
Gynecologist in New York City and one of the most highly
recognized and regarded individuals in the field of vaginal probe ultrasounds.
Sonohysterography can be used in
female patients experiencing infertility problems.
Submucosal myomas may be a source
of decreased fertility or increased risk for pregnancy loss. Endometrial polyps
are also more common in patients with fertility problems.
Fluid enhanced Sonohysterography
facilitates differentiation of these entities and can consistently diagnose
intra and pericavitary lesions in infertile women. Saline infusioin
Sonohysterography is widely used to diagnose the shape of the uterine cavity in
cases of suspected uterine malformation.
Intrauterine adhesions after
previous pregnancy associated procedures can also be detected with saline
infusion Sonohysterography.
Sonohysterograms are a
non-invasive, painless, less expensive way of diagnosing conditions in women
and take only a few minutes in the office of the gynecologist.
Dr Steven R. Goldstein MD has argued against blind
endometrial biopsies since 1995 and has championed saline infused
sonohysterography, finally endorsed by the ACOG in its Practice Bulletin in
2012. His clinical research has had a significant influence on the way
Gynecology is practiced.
Dr Goldstein has been in practice
for over 25 years and is a Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at New York
University School Of Medicine. He is also a Past Chairman of the American
College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, New York section, Past President American
Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine and is currently the Director of
