Abstract
Ultrasonic scanning was used to assist in the diagnosis and management of ovarian tumors. Tumor response to therapy was evaluated with sequential ultrasound examinations in conjunction with clinical observations. Contact B mode scanning and physical examination were complementary in demonstrating a change in tumor size, delineating small amounts of ascites, and identifying early omental implants. The information was used to guide the patient's management by chemotherapy.
