The authors present the most typical forms of the prostatic cancer imaged by transrectal ultrasound. They compared the results of investigations of two tumor markers [prostatic specific antigen (PSA), prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP),] the transrectal ultrasound and the rectal palpation. The sensibility of PSA, the ultrasound and the digital investigation were almost the same. The valuability of the transrectal ultrasound investigation in the early diagnosis is limited, but important to determine the stage of the disease, monitoring the process, control of the proper treatment, and in some differential diagnostical problems of the prostate.
作者展示了经直肠超声成像的前列腺癌最典型的形式。他们比较了两种肿瘤标志物[前列腺特异性抗原（PSA）、前列腺酸性磷酸酶（PAP）]、经直肠超声和直肠触诊的检查结果。PSA、超声和指诊的敏感性几乎相同。经直肠超声检查在早期诊断中的价值有限，但对于确定疾病分期、监测病程、控制恰当治疗以及解决前列腺的一些鉴别诊断问题很重要。
