VALUE OF ULTRASONIC TOMOGRAPHY IN THE STAGING OF ENDOMETRIAL CANCER

Abstract

Based on the results of preoperative examination in 180 patients, the investigators studied and analyzed the specific features of ultra- sonic images of endometrial cancer in detail. The comprehensive study comprising color Doppler and energy mapping, three-dimen- sional echography with standard and variable-frequency transducers was conducted using the expert-class ultrasound equipment. A close analysis revealed the high informative value of complex ultrasonic tomography in the preoperative staging of cancer of the cor- pus uteri, in its early stages in particular
