Other Diagnostic Studies
Hysteroscopy
- Hysteroscopy may be helpful in the direct visualization of precancerous lesions.
- A histopathology sample including any discrete lesions along with the surrounding normal endometrium may be helpful in the diagnosis of precancerous lesions.
D&C
- Diagnosis of endometrial hyperplasia is usually performed through curettage of the uterine cavity to obtain endometrial tissue for histopathologic analysis.[2]
