Assessment of in vivo calculation with ultrasonography compared to physical sections in vitro: a stereological study of prostate volumes

We compared three methods for the determination of prostate volume: prostate volume measured via transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS); the Cavalieri method for measuring physical sections; and volume by displacement. TRUS volumes were calculated by the prolate ellipsoid volume formula. Five patients u...
