Abstract

High-frequency ultrasound, known as micro-ultrasound (microUS), is a sonographic imaging modality capable of acquiring high-resolution, microscopically detailed images. This technology has been increasingly utilized for prostate cancer biopsy and diagnosis. Its utility outside of prostate cancer is under-described. A 76-year-old male with a past medical history of brachytherapy 25 years prior developed rectal cancer. Before undergoing resection, transrectal microUS was utilized to determine the relation of the rectal mass to the urogenital organs, which better established the planned surgical approach. To our knowledge, using transrectal microUS for evaluation of rectal masses invading the prostate has not yet been reported.

高频微超声经直肠显像提高前列腺辐射诱发直肠癌的分期和术前规划：1例报告。

高频超声，称为微超声（microUS），是一种超声成像方式，能够获得高分辨率，微观细节的图像。该技术已越来越多地用于前列腺癌活检和诊断。它在前列腺癌之外的应用还未被充分描述。76岁男性，25年前曾接受近距离放射治疗，现患直肠癌。在切除前，经直肠microUS确定直肠肿块与泌尿生殖器官的关系，更好地确定计划的手术入路。据我们所知，使用经直肠微镜评估直肠肿块侵入前列腺尚未见报道。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Clinical Ultrasound (JCU) is an international journal dedicated to the worldwide dissemination of scientific information on diagnostic and therapeutic applications of medical sonography. The scope of the journal includes--but is not limited to--the following areas: sonography of the gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary tract, vascular system, nervous system, head and neck, chest, breast, musculoskeletal system, and other superficial structures; Doppler applications; obstetric and pediatric applications; and interventional sonography. Studies comparing sonography with other imaging modalities are encouraged, as are studies evaluating the economic impact of sonography. Also within the journal''s scope are innovations and improvements in instrumentation and examination techniques and the use of contrast agents. JCU publishes original research articles, case reports, pictorial essays, technical notes, and letters to the editor. The journal is also dedicated to being an educational resource for its readers, through the publication of review articles and various scientific contributions from members of the editorial board and other world-renowned experts in sonography.
