Self-controlled Study Between 4-hour and 24-hour Delayed Radiographs in HSG Using OSCM

Background of the study: Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is widely used for the female infertility workup. Many studies have demonstrated that the use of oil-soluble contrast medium (OSCM) ethiodized oil for HSG surgery can improve pregnancy rates. However,The 24-hour delayed radiographs of OSCM HSG also brought some inconvenience to the patients , for example, patients need to make two trips to the hospital.

Study design: Prospective, open label, self - controlled study Study population: Infertile patients scheduled for an OSCM HSG
