Sonosalpingography (SSG), also known Sion test, is a diagnostic procedure primarily used for evaluating patency of fallopian tubes. It was introduced as a screening procedure for infertility investigations.
SSG is performed on day 5-12 of the menstrual cycle when menstruation has ceased and ovulation has not yet occurred, so early pregnancies are not disturbed.

In the procedure, no anesthetic is used. A small amount of saline is injected into your uterus which helps in getting a clear view of the inside of your uterus. The procedure is non-invasive and does not expose the patient to any radiation. What it needs is an ultrasound machine, a thin tube and an injection.
