Objectives: A feasibility study to evaluate whether analysis techniques adapted from X-ray angiography can be used to analyze the transient enhancement of prostate blood flow patterns in color Doppler maps as obtained after administering ultrasound contrast agents. Methods: Injections of ultrasound contrast agents were given to dogs and humans, and color Doppler blood flow patterns in fixed transverse sections through the prostate were recorded on video tape. Computer assistance of Doppler signals over time is used to evaluate the transient enhancement of flow patterns obtained with contrast-enhanced Doppler ultrasound. Results are compared to indicator dilution curve theory as used in, e.g., X-ray angiography. Results: Administering a contrast agent to improve color Doppler evaluation of prostate blood flow resulted in clear enhancement of Doppler signal intensities without unwanted side effects. Using the computer, the perfused area of the prostate could be obtained quantitatively over time showing profiles of individual heartbeats. Averaging the perfused area over one heartbeat resulted in an indicator dilution curve, and correlation with dilution theory indicated the feasibility of applying wash-in and wash-out analysis of contrast agents in color Doppler images. Conclusion: Frame-by-frame interpretation by the computer indicated the feasibility of analyzing the transient enhancement of blood flow visibility in the Doppler image over time using techniques such as wash-in and wash-out time. This technology provides researchers in the field of ultrasound evaluation of the prostate the opportunity to apply a new diagnostic tool, contrast angiosonography, in their research. This method for analysis of prostatic blood flow can be helpful in any application that affects the blood supply of the prostate such as heat treatments and hormonal treatments.
