125 suspects for endometrial pathology were examined to evaluate clinical significance of color Doppler sonography for comprehensive diagnosis of endometrial carcinoma. This pathology was identified in 114; atypical hyperplasia--11. The data on combined application of traditional ultrasound and color Doppler sonography were compared with those on clinical and postoperative histological examinations. The combined method proved the most informative both in primary diagnosis of endometrial carcinoma and assessment of invasion into the myometrium. The specific features of blood supply to carcinoma are discussed.
