What does salpingogram mean?

Salpingogram (also known as a tubogram) is a type of X-ray examination that uses a contrast medium to evaluate the fallopian tubes and other female reproductive organs. It is typically performed to assess for any blockages or abnormalities that may be affecting fertility. During the procedure, a contrast medium is injected into the cervix and uterus, and then a series of X-rays are taken to visualize the fallopian tubes and other reproductive structures. The test is usually performed on an outpatient basis and can provide valuable information about the health and functioning of the female reproductive system.
