Over the last two decades, ultrasound evaluation of the endometrium and uterine cavity evolved from 2D grayscale evaluation of the endometrial thickness to a much more comprehensive examination including colour imaging, fluid instillation and 3D ultrasound. The International Endometrial Tumor Analysis (IETA) group recently published a consensus opinion paper on terms, definitions and measurements to describe the sonographic features on the endometrium and intrauterine lesions.
