INTRODUCTION The objective of this study was to evaluate the correlation of suprapubic ultrasonography and transrectal ultrasonography in measurements of prostate dimension and volume. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred consecutive patients with lower urinary tract symptoms were examined by suprapubic and transrectal ultrasonography modalities in a same session. Measurements of the 3 dimension...

The aims of the present study were to evaluate and compare the accuracy of transrectal ultrasonography and pregnancy-associated glycoprotein radioimmunoassay (PAG-RIA) test for diagnosis of pregnancy in buffaloes. Two hundred and seventy-five buffalo cows and heifers were examined once for pregnancy diagnosis by transrectal ultrasonography using a 5 MHz linear-array transducer between Days 19 a...

From 1988 to 1992, 78 patients with genuine stress urinary incontinence underwent bladder neck suspension under ultrasonic monitoring. Tightness of suspension was adjusted by setting posterior urethrovesical angle to approximately 90 degree by transrectal ultrasonography during operation. Urinary continence was achieved in 68 of 78 patients. In the remaining 10 patients, slight incontinence rec...

Background: To compare transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS) and TRUS-guided seminal vesicle aspiration in the diagnosis of ejaculatory duct obstruction (EDO). comparing the findings of TRUS and TRUS-guided seminal vesicle (SV) aspiration. Materials and Methods: Design: A retrospective case-controlled study comparing the findings of TRUS and TRUS-guided seminal vesicle (SV) aspiration. Setting: Cl...

Transrectal longitudinal ultrasonography was performed in 34 patients with chronic non-bacterial prostatitis. Prostatic stones and cystic lesions were associated with chronic non-bacterial prostatitis in 67.6% and 11.8%, respectively. The annual relapse rates of clinical symptoms were related to the presence of prostatic stones and cystic lesions. Transrectal ultrasonography plays a very import...
