Overview
Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of prostate cancer. Hypoechoic lesion in the peripheral zone of the gland is the most common finding on prostate cancer ultrasound.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of prostate cancer. Findings on an ultrasound suggestive of prostate cancer include:[1][2]
- Hypoechoic lesion in the peripheral zone of the gland (60%-70%)
- Hyperechoic or isoechoic (30%-40%)
- Directing brachytherapy seeds into the prostate gland
