The uterosacral ligaments (LUS) will be identified at the level of the cervix in a transverse scan, rotated by 45 °, according to the method described in the literature. At this site, LUS present as hyperechoic striae located posterior to the cervix. The first measurement will be performed at the level of the uterine torus, in the median position. This will be the reference point for subsequent measurements. Two further measurements will be taken, one on each side: one point will be located on the LUS 1.5 cm to the right and another 1.5 cm to the left of the torus uterinum. For each patient, the three measurements will be recorded and the average of the three measurements will be calculated as an additional parameter",[13,31,46,58],{"facility":14,"status":15,"city":16,"state":17,"zip":18,"country":19,"countryCode":20,"cosmosGeoPoint":21,"geoPoint":26,"contacts":27},"Policlinico Universitario Federico II","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","Naples","Napoli","80131","Italy","IT",{"type":22,"coordinates":23},"Point",[24,25],14.26811,40.85216,{"lat":25,"lon":24},[28],{"name":29,"role":30,"phone":7,"phoneExt":7,"email":7},"Pierluigi Giampaolino, MD","CONTACT",{"facility":32,"status":15,"city":33,"state":34,"zip":35,"country":19,"countryCode":20,"cosmosGeoPoint":36,"geoPoint":40,"contacts":41},"Policlinico Abano Terme","Abano Terme","Padova","35031",{"type":22,"coordinates":37},[38,39],11.78725,45.35753,{"lat":39,"lon":38},[42],{"name":43,"role":30,"phone":44,"phoneExt":7,"email":45},"Manuel Maria Ianieri, MD","+39 049 8221211","direzionesanitaria@pec.policlinicoabano.it",{"facility":47,"status":15,"city":48,"state":48,"zip":49,"country":19,"countryCode":20,"cosmosGeoPoint":50,"geoPoint":54,"contacts":55},"Presidio ospedaliero-universitario Santa Maria della Misericordia - Azienda Sanitaria Universitaria Friuli Centrale","Udine","33100",{"type":22,"coordinates":51},[52,53],13.23715,46.0693,{"lat":53,"lon":52},[56],{"name":57,"role":30,"phone":7,"phoneExt":7,"email":7},"Giuseppe Vizielli, MD",{"facility":59,"status":60,"city":61,"state":62,"zip":63,"country":19,"countryCode":20,"cosmosGeoPoint":64,"geoPoint":68,"contacts":69},"Ospedale P.
