Re: [ozmidwifery] Vaginal ultrasounds

Mary I have noticed that the u/s person who has been and remains the person I refer women to is doing more and more vaginal u/s when there is a problem ie not a good veiw etc but always after asking the woman who often declines. But as a routine sounds very unusal practise. jan  ----- Original Message ----- From: Mary Murphy To: list Sent: Saturday, September 07, 2002 10:47 AM Subject: [ozmidwifery] Vaginal ultrasounds There is an obstetrician in Perth who routinely performs vaginal ultrasound in his rooms before 12 weeks gest.  Is this an accepted practice and what would the reasons be for such a practice?
