摘要：

The possibility of using transrectal power Doppler imaging (PDI) of the prostate for assessing the microvascular density (MVD) of cancer lesions was examined. The study involved 22 patients with clinically organ-confined prostate cancer. PDI was performed prior to radical prostatectomy and the degree of vascularity of cancer lesions evaluated by PDI was compared with MVD determined on surgical specimens.
