What Is Saline Infusion Sonography?

Sonohysterography, also called a saline infusion sonogram (SIS) or sonohysterogram, is a procedure to look at the inside of the uterus. It's a safe test that uses sound waves and a computer to create images. It does not use radiation.

While the ultrasonographer takes images of the uterus, sterile liquid is gently injected through the thin tube, or catheter. You may feel a little bloating or cramping, but most women don't feel much.


When Its Done?

  • If you’ve ever experienced irregular, heavy or post-menopausal bleeding, struggle with infertility or had an ultrasound and something came up abnormal, or the cavity was not clearly seen, your doctor could order a saline infusion sonography (SIS).

  • This special ultrasound gives your doctor a better look at your uterus, especially the cavity.
