Introduction: Color Doppler sonography is a new method used to investigate changes during the menstrual cycle in infertile women. The objective of this study was to investigate the correlation of uterine and endomterial-subendomterial blood flow in infertile women using ultrasound and color Doppler sonography. Material and methods: A prospective clinical study included 65 infertile women divided into three groups. Transvaginal ultrasound examination was performed on days XI, XIV and XX. All results were statistically analyzed. We investigated the correlation between cycles, pregnancy outcome and distribution of endomterial-subendomterial blood flow, as well as uterine arterial blood flow. Results and conclusion: Endomterial-subendometerial blood flow distribution pattern assessed by transvaginal color Doppler, as well as good flow in uterine vessels, are necessery for good pregnancy rates. Thin endomterium, undetectable subendomterial blood flow and higher uterine arterial resistance, were associated with low pregnancy rate and poor outcome.

Summary Objective: To test for the feasibility of transabdominal Doppler sonography (color, power, pulse wave) to define uterine perfusion characteristics throughout the estrous cycle in gilts. Materials and methods: A total of 15 gilts were synchronized for estrus and scanned in their following spontaneous cycle while being restrained in a purpose-designed mobile crate. To define uterine perfusion characteristics, vessels in between and within uterine cross-sections were imaged and recorded as video sequences to be analyzed by PixelFlux® software for perfused area (Amix), blood flow velocity (vmix) and intensity (Imix) as well as resistance (RIvmix) and pulsatility index (PIvmix). Results: Color Doppler sonography proved to be the only feasible technique, as it was less affected by animal movements than power and pulse wave sonography. As determined by color Doppler sonography, all five parameters determined showed specific patterns through the estrous cycle, i. e. Amix, vmix, Imix were high in proestrus, decreased in estrus and remained low in midestrus and most parts of diestrus; RIvmix and PIvmix with inversely paralleled patterns. Conclusion and clinical relevance: This study has demonstrated that transabdominal color Doppler but not power and pulse wave Doppler sonography is feasible to be performed in crate-restrained gilts for studying uterine perfusion characteristics during the estrous cycle, and that changes of uterine perfusion over the course of the estrous cycle can be clearly followed by color Doppler sonography. Results encourage the use of color Doppler sonography for studying i. e. uterine capacity or uterus related infertility such as for cases of clinically unapparent endometritis.

Diminished mucosal mass and a diminished rate of DNA synthesis by the intestinal mucosa have been identified in the rat after thermal injury. Because these changes may be associated with ischemia, the distribution of intestinal blood flow was studied after a thermal injury and compared with the blood flow distribution after hemorrhagic shock. For the thermal injury, anesthetized animals received a standardized 20% body surface area, full-thickness injury and were given intraperitoneal saline resuscitation. By the use of 46Sc- or 141Ce-labeled microspheres, no changes in intestinal and hepatic blood flow occurred after thermal injury. In contrast, a marked redistribution of blood flow was identified after hemorrhagic shock in which a decrease in arterial blood flow was identified to the stomach and to the small and large intestine. Although clinical shock was not present, the cardiac output decreased to a comparable degree in the hemorrhagic shock and the thermal injury. These studies indicate that although physiological changes in intestinal mucosa can be demonstrated after burn injury, these changes are not due to decreases in mesenteric arterial blood flow.
