HSG Catheter: The Ultimate Guide to Usage and Best Practices
The HSG catheter is a sterile, disposable instrument available in different sizes (commonly 5F and 7F) and lengths, designed to facilitate the delivery of contrast material or saline during the HSG procedure. Its design typically includes a soft, atraumatic tip and a balloon that, once inflated, secures the catheter in the proper position within the cervical canal. This minimizes leakage and improves the accuracy of imaging.
