Flushing tubes helps
/Radiologists need special liquids to inject in the uterus and the tubes to make them stand out on an X-ray. A study recently published in the prestigious journal New England Journal of Medicine shows that flushing the Fallopian tubes with an oil-based contrast medium leads to much higher pregnancy rates following the X-ray than a water-based contrast medium.
The lead investigator of the study, Professor Ben Mol, announced the results at the World Congress of Endometriosis held in Vancouver this week.
