In this ultrasound image we can see an enlarged darkened area in the lower right portion of the prostate. This proved to be cancer of the prostate . The cancerous tissue is darker because it is much more dense than the normal tissue.
Notice also that the shape of the gland is much less symmetrical than the normal prostate. This is an advanced form of prostate cancer that has already spread through the capsule surrounding the prostate to the surrounding structures. |
