Different screening strategies exist to estimate the risk of tubal factor subfertility, preceding laparoscopy. Three screening strategies, comprising Chlamydia trachomatis IgG antibody testing (CAT), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) testing and hysterosalpingography (HSG), were explored using laparoscopy as reference standard and the occurrence of a spontaneous pregnancy as a surrogate marker for the absence of tubal pathology.
