The endometrium and a 5\u2010mm subendometrial \u201cshell\u201d were evaluated at rotation angles of 9\u00b0 and 30\u00b0.

All vascular indices were significantly higher in the group with malignancies except for the vascularization flow index. There were no differences in the values obtained using the 9\u00b0 or the 30\u00b0 angle. Receiver\u2010operating characteristics curves were traced for all indices. The vascularity index had the best area under the curve (0.78), 77.8% sensitivity, and 82.6% specificity.
