Assessment of the fallopian tube patency (HyFoSy)
Ultrasound assessment of the fallopian tubes (HyCoSy) is performed on an outpatient basis without anesthesia. A thin catheter is inserted into the cervix, through which a contrast agent is applied visible on the ultrasound imaging device. During the assessment, the doctor can see whether the contrast agent passes through the fallopian tubes and enters the ovarian area. This assessment is not optimal for every single patient, for example, it cannot rule out or confirm endometriosis (this can only be confirmed by a laparoscopic examination).
The price of the procedure €150. This procedure is not reimbursed by the health insurance company.
