Abstract
Patients (110) suspected of having hydatidiform mole or partial mole were examined, utilizing nonstored image echography. Hydatidiform mole was confirmed in 23 patients, 4 of whom persented with a coexistent fetus and 3 with blighted ovum. No false diagnoses of hydatidiform mole were made. Reasons for the superiority of a nonstored image technique are discussed, particularly with regard to elimination of primary and secondary problems inherent in echographic diagnosis.
