How is vaginal depth measured clinically and are there noninvasive methods?

Clinical measurement of vagina size and wall thickness uses a mix of direct tools (rods, specula, vaginal depth scales) and imaging (MRI, transvaginal ultrasound, in‑vivo video microscopy), and severa...

How do measurement methods (MRI, casts, speculum) change reported vaginal depth values?

Different measurement techniques produce systematically different vaginal depth and dimension values because each method changes the canal’s shape, degree of distention and what surrounding tissues ar...

How do measurement methods (speculum, MRI, castings) change reported vaginal dimensions in anatomical studies?

Different measurement methods produce different reported vaginal dimensions because they capture different states of the organ (undistended, lumen‑filled, wall thickness) and impose different mechanic...

What methods do researchers use to measure vaginal depth and how consistent are results?

Researchers measure vaginal depth and related dimensions with a mix of imaging (MRI, CT), ultrasound, physical castings and intra‑operative/dilator measurements; results are method‑dependent but repea...
