Transvaginal colour flow imaging in assessment of ovarian tumor neovascularization.
Localization and intensity of angiogenesis in benign and malignant ovarian neoplasms recorded by color Doppler transvaginal ultrasound has been assessed. Increased intratumoral angiogenesis has been affirmed in 60% of malignant and only in 9% of benign lesions.
