Transrectal echography using a high-frequency transducer is a well established method for preoperative rectal carcinoma assessment, and for postoperative follow-up of patients with anterior resection for rectal carcinoma. Having in mind the impossibility for follow-up study of patients with abdominal perineal extirpation of the rectum by transrectal echography, a new pattern of application of the transducer employed for endorectal examination is suggested. In five patients (4 women and 1 man) endocavitary echography through the anal canal is done. In women the examination is supplemented by transvaginal echography. A local recurrence in the course, of transvaginal study is recorded in one patient. The technique of examination and the superiorities of the procedure are discussed.

Background: Targeted and systematic transperineal biopsy of lesions guided by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS) fusion technique may optimize the biopsy procedure and enhance the detection of prostate cancer. We described the transperineal biopsy guided by an automatic MRI-TRUS fusion technique, and evaluated the accuracy and feasibility of this method in a prospective single-center study.
Methods: The proposed method focuses on automating the delineation of prostate contours in both the MRI and TRUS images, the registration and fusion of MRI and TRUS images, the generation and visualiztion of the systematic biopsy cores in their corresponding locations within the 2D and the 3D views, as well as the computation and visualiztion of needle trajectories from preoperative planning to intraoperative navigation.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the nature of ultrasound characteristics during mpMRI/TRUS cognitive fusion targeted biopsy (cTB).
Methods: From 2023 to 2024, data from 502 lesions in 426 men who underwent targeted combined systematic biopsy were analyzed. All lesions had a Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) score of ≥ 3.

Background: Reproductive efficiency is paramount in the dairy industry, where early pregnancy detection of dairy cows will allow to detect the non-pregnant animals early, thus enabling to re-synchronize them and getting them pregnant leading to decrease in calving interval, which, in turn, is critical for maximizing productivity and economic gain. The objective of this study was to evaluate the colour Doppler ultrasonography (CDUS) and peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs)-based pregnancy-associated biomarker mRNAs expression for the earliest detection of pregnancy status in the dairy cows at post insemination. Intensively managed animals were ovulation synchronized and subjected to timed artificial insemination (TAI).

Malnutritional stress during gestation is a well-established driver of metabolic disfunction in offspring. Extended exposure to malnutrition requires metabolic plasticity as the animal shifts toward a catabolic state. In this paper we demonstrate the influence of malnutrition throughout gestation on uterine artery hemodynamics and the metabolism of the dam and neonate.
