Hi,
The ultrasound scans have measured the size or volume of the prostate gland and that is indicated by the numbers.
Scan 1
Prostate measures 4.9 x 5.1 x 4.5 cm (volume 112 cc)
Scan 2
Prostate measures 4.7 x 5.5 x 4.1 cm (volume 108 cc)
Scan 3
Prostate measures 4.1 x 4.7 x 5.0 cm (volume 96 cc)
From the 3 ultrasound scan reports it is obvious that the prostate gland is showing minimal reduction in size. Please discuss with your urologist.
