Many factors: The patients size, the size of the ovary, the skill of the technician, the quality of the sonogram machine, the amount of bowel gas present, the location of the ovary are some of the common reasons.

Ovaries: Ovaries are very small and can difficult to find. CT scan would find them if present.
