Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

There is a radiological criteria for PCOS and the scan may show sonographic features of polycystic ovaries

50% women have the bilateral enlarged ovaries with multiple small follicles
increased ovarian size (> 10 cc)
12 or more follicles measuring 2 - 9 mm follicles of similar size
peripheral location of follicles : which can give a string of pearl appearance
hyperechoic central stroma
the ovarian outline may be slightly irregular

25% women may show
hypo-echoic ovary without individual cysts

25% women have normal ovaries

Though your ultrasound report does not specifically indicate PCOS, it must be discussed with your clinical symptoms.
