Previous ultrasonic scanning of the prostate primarily has involved the transrectal approach. In this study the suprapubic approach was chosen because it uses basic ultrasound equipment and is atraumatic. In 29 patients undergoing prostatectomy there was a highly significant correlation (r equals 0.95) between the prostatic weight determined by this method and the postoperative weight of the adenoma.
以往对前列腺进行超声扫描主要采用经直肠途径。在本研究中选择耻骨上途径，因为它使用基本的超声设备且无创伤。在29例行前列腺切除术的患者中，用该方法测定的前列腺重量与术后腺瘤重量之间存在高度显著的相关性（r等于0.95）。
