Three-dimensional Static Ultrasound and 3D Power Doppler in Gynecologic Pelvic Tumors

Abstract

ABSTRACT Gynecological tumors are a frequent clinical problem. Accurate diagnosis is essential for an adequate clinical management. Currently, 2D ultrasound is considered as a first line imaging technique for diagnosis and for discriminating benign from malignant lesions. However, some limitations of this technique exist. Three-dimensional is a relatively new technique that allows some unique ways for assessing gynecological tumors by ultrasound. In this article, I shall review current evidence about the use of three-dimensional ultrasound for assessing gynecological tumors. How to cite this article Alcázar JL.
