Abstract
In this case series, contrast enhanced genitosonography is compared to genitography
performed using fluoroscopy and cone-beam computed tomography in patients with urogenital
sinus and the cloacal malformation. The method of contrast enhanced genitosonography
is described, including contrast preparation, contrast administration, ultrasound
imaging approaches, as well as the benefits and potential pitfalls of this technique
compared to fluoroscopy and computed tomography.
