In an earlier paper, we reported our scoring system for the diagnosis of adenomyosis by gray scale transvaginal sonography. In this study we evaluated 44 benign uterine masses (adenomyosis and myomas) and seven uterine malignancies. We used transvaginal color and pulsed Doppler imaging to determine whether this technique is useful to differentiate adenomyosis from uterine malignancies. The peak systolic velocity and the resistive index of intratumoral vessels were studied. The differences in these parameters for adenomyosis and uterine malignancies were statistically significant. Our results suggest that this technique is useful to differentiate adenomyosis from uterine malignancies.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007889 Leiomyoma A benign tumor derived from smooth muscle tissue, also known as a fibroid tumor. They rarely occur outside of the UTERUS and the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT but can occur in the SKIN and SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE, probably arising from the smooth muscle of small blood vessels in these tissues.
