2003 OCT 2 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Images of cervical cancer intratumoral blood flow correlate with tumor findings.

According to published research from Spain, "the objective of this study was to evaluate whether intratumoral blood flow as assessed by transvaginal color Doppler ultrasonography (TVCD) correlates with some tumor features in cervical cancer. Clinical, sonographic, and histologic data on 49 women (mean age: 50.3 years, range: 25-85 years) diagnosed as having a carcinoma from the uterine cervix were reviewed."

"Intratumoral blood flow was assessed by TVCD in all cases. Subjective impression of the amount of flow (scanty, moderate, or abundant) as well as the lowest resistance index (RI) and highest peak systolic velocity (PSV, cm/s) were used for analysis. These data were correlated with some tumoral features such as histologic type, histologic grade, tumor volume, and tumor stage. Intratumoral blood flow was found in all cases," J.L. Alcazar and colleagues, University of Navarra, Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology wrote.

"Abundant blood flow was found more frequently in squamous carcinoma, moderately or poorly differentiated tumors, tumors with larger volume, and advanced stage tumors (p
