In recent years, the use of Doppler ultrasound sonography for the diagnosis of atherosclerosis has increased. However, parameters provided by the commercially available Doppler ultrasound units are inadequate to compete with the gold standard method, catheter angiography. Therefore, developing a new method based on Doppler ultrasound sonography remains a hot topic among researchers. In this stu...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of induced endometritis on uterine blood flow in cows. Transrectal Doppler sonography was performed on uterine arteries of six cyclic cows before and for 4 days after inducing acute endometritis by intrauterine infusion of 720 mg of policresulen, and for 4 days of the following estrous cycle. Time-averaged maximum velocity (TAMV) increased (p < 0...

Recently, there have been several major technical advances in the sonographic diagnosis of ovarian cancer in its early stages. These include improved assessment of tumor morphology with transvaginal sonography (TVS), and detection and characterization of tumor neovascularity with transvaginal color Doppler sonography (TV-CDS) and contrast-enhanced transvaginal sonography (CE-TVS). This paper wi...
