Several other methods can be used for evaluating abnormal uterine bleeding, although the benefits and relative risks must be considered and compared to EMB.
Remember:
The sensitivity and specificity of EMB make it the best test in this setting. The detection rate of EMB for endometrial cancer is 91%. There is no "perfect test" so, if AUB persists, especially in patients at high risk for endometrial cancer, another test should be performed.
