New sonographic techniques in urology, together with their principles of operation, will be presented. Together with the utilization of broadband ultrasound scanners and digital beam formers, leading to better spatial resolution and increased line density in ultrasound imaging, panorama sonography enables the outline of wide lateral regions independent of the width of the scanner. Spatial compound sonography achieves a comparatively better visualization of details in the b-mode image than has yet been available. The continuously improved 3-D, now leading to 4-D, techniques, which means real time capabilities, make the visualization of unrestricted imaging planes, which are not seen in conventional 2-D techniques, possible. The second harmonic imaging technique, including the special applications tissue harmonic imaging (THI) and contrast harmonic imaging (CHI), uses special ultrasound signal processing procedures for capturing and evaluating tissue hemoperfusion-here in combination with ultrasound contrast agents (UCA). Furthermore, microvascular imaging (MVI) enables the visualization of perfusion in tissues reaching the microcirculation regions. This leads to new possibilities for the assessment of pathological perfusion patterns, e.g. in andrology (perfusion of testicles) and uro-oncology (hyperperfusion of malignant regions).
