Abstract
Although there are many tests that effectively evaluate factors determining the origin of infertility, there are but a few ways to study the uterine cavity itself besides hysterosalpingography (HSG) and endometrial biopsy. These techniques are quite useful, but when endometrial pathology is suspected ╍ whether it be organic or functional ╍ direct visualisation of the uterine cavity, together with the traditional endometrial biopsy, provides much more specific information.
