Pelvic Ultrasound

Date: Nov 4, 2014

Question:

If order states ultrasound pelvis, and the radiologist does only TV, but does all the elements of the pelvic ultrasound (and documents), are there any concerns on passing that as a valid order? I have asked that they also document why they did the TV approach.
