Tests for Uterine Fibroids and Diagnosis

Your doctor may suggest one or more ofthe following diagnostic tests:

Blood test: Complete blood picture to check for anaemia
Ultrasound: This is done when the patient has heavy bleeding or any of the other symptoms associated with fibroids. 
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): Helps in identifying the location and size of fibroids. 
Trans vaginal scan: A small scanner is inserted into the patient’s vagina to view the uterus.
Hysteroscopy: A small telescope is introduced into the uterine cavity through the cervix and is used to examine the uterus lining
Laproscopy: A small flexible tube device used to look at the outer aspect of the uterus.
Biopsy: Small uterine lining is incised and sent for investigations.
