Normal ovary (luteal phase)
Normal Ovary — Luteal Phase
During the luteal phase (post-ovulation, Day ~14–28), the ovary is dominated by the corpus luteum (CL), a physiologic structure formed from the ruptured follicle. It produces progesterone to support potential implantation. Sonographically, its characteristic appearance allows confident identification of a normal luteal-phase ovary and avoids misinterpretation as pathology.
Key sonographic features — normal luteal-phase ovary:
- Corpus luteum (CL)
- Internal contents may be hypoechoic, mixed echogenicity, or lace-like (hemorrhagic variant)
- Characteristic peripheral ring of the luteal wall
- Doppler showing the “ring of fire”: well-vascularized peripheral flow with low resistance (RI 0.4–0.5)
- Normal ovarian volume (~5–15 mL), possibly mildly enlarged due to CL
- Ovarian stroma mildly echogenic; small background follicles may still be present
- Possible minimal physiologic free fluid in the pouch of Douglas, especially immediately post-ovulation
Physiology review: The luteal phase is characterized by:
- Progesterone peak 6–8 days after ovulation
- Moderate estrogen increase
- Negative feedback on LH and FSH
Differentiation from pathology:
- Vs. simple ovarian cyst: CL has a thick vascular wall; cysts are thin-walled and anechoic.
- Vs. ectopic pregnancy: CL is within the ovary; ectopic tubal rings are separate from the ovary.
- Vs. ovarian torsion: normal CL shows preserved low-resistance flow; torsion shows enlarged ovary with reduced/absent venous flow.
Clinical significance: This appearance confirms recent ovulation and is a normal cyclic finding. Radiology reports frequently describe:
- “Normal ovary—luteal phase appearance”
- “Corpus luteum present”
- “No adnexal mass”
Suggested caption for readers: In the luteal phase, the ovary normally contains a corpus luteum, often thick-walled and vascular (“ring of fire”). This is a physiologic cyclic structure and should not be confused with a pathologic ovarian cyst or adnexal mass when typical features are present.

Normal Ovary -Follicular Phase
Normal Ovary — Follicular Phase
During the follicular phase (early-mid menstrual cycle) the ovary normally contains multiple small follicles of varying size. A dominant follicle may be visible as a follicular (anechoic) structure that progressively enlarges. This is a physiologic appearance and should not be mistaken for pathologic cysts when features are typical.
Key sonographic features — normal follicular-phase ovary:
- Multiple small anechoic follicles (typically 2–10 mm) scattered in the ovarian cortex
- Occasionally a dominant follicle (up to ~18–25 mm prior to ovulation)
- Anechoic (fluid-filled) round/ovoid follicles with thin walls and posterior acoustic enhancement
- No internal echoes, no mural nodules, and no internal vascular solid components within follicles
- Tubal/adjacent structures normal; no free fluid unless physiologic minimal amount
Clinical significance: This is a normal cyclic appearance. Dominant follicles grow prior to ovulation; follow-up is only required if a cyst persists >6–8 weeks, is symptomatic, or demonstrates suspicious features such as solid vascular nodules, papillary projections, or thick irregularized walls.
Suggested caption for readers: Normal ovarian morphology in the follicular phase often shows multiple small follicles; one may become dominant. Typical follicles are simple, anechoic, mobile with probe pressure, and avascular internally on Doppler.

Hemorrhagic Ovarian Cyst (Fishnet Weave / Reticular Pattern)
Fishnet Weave / Reticular Pattern
A Hemorrhagic Ovarian Cyst (HOC) is a functional ovarian cyst that forms when a normal follicle or corpus luteum bleeds internally. It is not a tumor, not cancer, and usually resolves on its own within 6–12 weeks.
Cyst wall
The cyst wall is the outer boundary of the ovarian cyst, formed by stretched ovarian tissue or the capsule of a functional follicle/corpus luteum.
Sonographic characteristics:
- Thin or mildly thickened
- Smooth inner margins
- May show mild wall hyperemia
- No mural nodules (important — nodules = suspicious)
FIBRIN STRANDS (Fishnet / Reticular Pattern)
Fibrin strands are thin, web-like internal echoes created by the formation of fibrin as blood clots inside the cyst.
Sonographic characteristics:
- Thin, linear, curvilinear internal echoes
- Intersecting pattern (“fishnet”, “lace”, “reticular”)
- Avascular on Color Doppler
- May show subtle movement with probe pressure
Ovarian tumors — which typically contain vascular solid areas
Endometriomas — which show homogeneous “ground-glass” internal echoes
CLOT FRAGMENTS (Echogenic Debris)
Clot fragments are irregular echogenic masses formed from organizing blood inside the cyst.
Sonographic characteristics:
- Non-shadowing echogenic foci or masses
- May be mobile or layered
- No internal vascularity (key diagnostic point)
- Often settle in the dependent portion of the cyst
Why This Pattern Is Important
The fishnet pattern helps diagnose HOC confidently without mistaking it for:
1. Endometrioma ("ground glass" homogeneous pattern)
2. Tumors (vascular nodules)
3. Tubo-ovarian abscess (complex echogenicity)
