Transvaginal color Doppler ultrasonography for prediction of pre-cancerous endometrial lesions

Abstract

Doppler's velocity waveforms of uterine vessels coupled with transvaginal ultrasonography are not valuable enough to replace histopathological examination in the diagnosis of a neoplastic endometrial pathology. However, it may be helpful in cases in which invasive techniques are difficult to perform and in the differentiation of a certain group of patients at little risk of endometrial carcinoma.
