Twenty-seven women with endometrial cancer were studied with Doppler ultrasound coupled with a vaginal probe. Pulsatility index of the flow velocity of the uterine artery was recorded and compared to that of a control group. The subjects and the controls did not differ in blood flow measurements. There was no correlation between severity of disease and flow velocimetry values. Eleven of the patients underwent brachytherapy prior to surgery. Administration of brachytherapy resulted in a decrease of the peripheral resistance. The results of this study indicate that Doppler velocimetry of the uterine artery is not a valuable tool in discriminating between malignant and benign endometrium.
