Three-dimensional ultrasound has already been employed to improve detection and characterization of the masses in various organs. The system can also be expected to improve qualitative evaluation of vessel pathology. Three-dimensional ultrasound could offer an additional contribution even in Andrology, in at least three fields: in the best evaluation of the anatomical structures; in most accurate measurement of the volumes of the organs; in the study of the Peyronie's disease, for the availability of the coronal plain.
