| This ultrasound image shows a normal prostate gland. This image was taken through a "transverse" section of the prostate. This is a side-to-side view of the prostate.
The probe sits at the bottom of the picture, directly beneath the rectum. The normal prostate is a symmetrical, cresent-shaped structure.
From this angle we may also see the urethra, the tube that runs through the prostate carrying urine from the bladder out through the penis. |
