The diagnostic value of two-dimensional ultrasound score, contrast-enhanced ultrasound score and ultrasound elastography score in prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Prostate cancer (PCa) is a prevalent malignancy in men, with early diagnosis being crucial for treatment and prognosis. This study evaluates the diagnostic efficacy of two-dimensional ultrasound imaging score (2DUS), contrast-enhanced ultrasound score (CEUS), and ultrasound elastography score (UES) in PCa.

Methods

The PCa group consisted of patients diagnosed with primary PCa who underwent radical prostatectomy at the second hospital of Shanxi Medical University between January 2022 and December 2023. The benign lesion group consisted of patients diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)through prostate biopsy during the same period. We compared ultrasound scores at PCa and BPH patients using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. The stud
