Ultrasound of Polycystic Ovaries

Panels A,B and C represent an ultrasound image of polycystic ovaries with an even distribution of follicles. Panels D,E and F represent an ultrasound image of polycystic ovaries with a peripheral distribution of follices. Panels G,H and I represent polycystic ovaries with a large cystic corpus luteum (CL). Panel J displays an image of a polycystic ovary containing a CL with thick hyperechoic walls and a cavity with fluid. Panel K displays an image of a polycystic ovary with a concentrated collection of follicles along the lower margin of the ovary. Panel L is a transverse cross-section through an irregular shaped polycystic ovary.
