Sixty\u2010six women had non\u2010malignant changes and 19 women had malignant changes on histologic examination of the endometrium. Uterine fibroids were detected in 30 women. When malignant changes were detected in the endometrium, uterine artery resistance index was always below 0.83. The mean uterine artery resistance index was significantly lower in the group of women with pathologic changes of the endometrium (RI = 0.77\u00b10.03) compared to the group with non pathologic changes (RI=0.85\u00b10.08 <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.01), excluding the women with uterine fibroids. The lowest mean resistance index in the uterine artery was observed in the group of women with uterine fibroids (RI = 0.60 \u00b1 0.09 <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>&lt; 0.001). In five of six patients with endometrial carcinoma blood vessels were detected around the myometrium by using color flow imaging. Their RI was always less than 0.5. In five patients, blood vessels were detected in uterine fibroids but their RI was always more than 0.5. All six women with endometrial carcinoma but only seven of 13 women with endometrial hyperplasia, had endometrial thickness greater than 5 mm. Doppler velocimetry of the uterine artery carries a high sensitivity (100%) in detecting pathological changes of the endometrium in patients presenting with postmenopausal or perimenopausal bleeding. The presence of high resistance in this vessel, may allow a more conservative approach in this group of patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3109\/00016349309013365","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,11,13]],"date-time":"2007-11-13T19:10:07Z","timestamp":1194981007000},"page":"162-166","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":39,"title":["Uterine artery flow velocity waveforms and color flow imaging in women with perimenopausal and postmenopausal bleeding"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"72","author":[{"given":"Zeev","family":"Weiner","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dan","family":"Beck","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shraga","family":"Rottem","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joseph M.","family":"Brandes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Israel","family":"Thaler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,1,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1471-0528.1989.tb03233.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_3_1","first-page":"81","article-title":"Transvaginal and transabdominal sonography of the endometrium","volume":"9","author":"Fleischer A C.","year":"1988","journal-title":"Semin.
