This new diagnostic modality has proven reliable in quantitating decrease in volume of the primary tumor following therapy in 71% of patients with prostatic carcinoma (10 of 14 patients) in whom long-term follow-up is available. In 12 patients staged prior to radical prostatectomy, prostatic ultrasono...

In Experiment 1, ewes (n = 12) and does (n = 15) were examined by transrectal ultrasonography every week from breeding to parturition to determine the growth...
