Background:

Consensus and international evaluation guidelines establish that the decisive imaging methods in the evaluation of the infertile patient are: transvaginal ultrasound, hysterosalpingography and magnetic resonance imaging.

Objective:

To present the importance of the joint evaluation of transvaginal ultrasound, hysterosalpingography and magnetic resonance imaging for the diagnosis and treatment of infertile women.

Clinical cases:

Six cases of patients are exposed in infertility evaluation studies where, depending on the clinical suspicion, the different diagnostic imaging methods are indicated, alone or together.

Conclusions:

Transvaginal ultrasound, magnetic resonance and hysterosalpingography are the three fundamental imaging methods in the evaluation of the infertile patient. They are complementary to each other and their analysis must be, jointly, in order to provide the treating physician with the necessary information for the diagnosis and management of said patients.
