Given the role of angiogenesis in tumor growth, the evaluation of tissue vascularization by Doppler ultrasound has been thought to be useful in the prediction of malignant endometrial changes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of transvaginal color Doppler ultrasound (TV-CDU) findings in the differentiation between endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial carcinoma and its relation with pathologic findings.
