Fig. 1 — Ultrasound volume quantitation of mouse ventral prostate is highly reproducible. a Upper sets of panels (for mice M-1 and M-2) depict the ultrasound images of the lower genitourinary system resolved into three orthogonal planes (transverse, coronal and sagittal, as indicated) and the corresponding integrated 3D images. The lower set of panels (for mice M-1 and M-2) illustrates the process of segmentation of the relevant anatomic structures (bladder in yellow, ventral prostate in green) using the Amira software. b Amira generated segmented ultrasound image of the lower genitourinary system from mouse M-1, including bladder (yellow), seminal vesicle (blue), testes (purple), ventral prostate (green) and vas deferens (red). c The ventral prostate volume for each of four mice was repeatedly determined. Each symbol represents an independent determination for a given mouse. Columns denote the mean and error bars the SEM. M-1, M-2 and M-3 were imaged four times, while M-4 was imaged twice.
