Usg scrotal doppler
Color Doppler USG of the scrotum has been demonstrated to be useful in the diagnosis of scrotal lesions. Gray-scale USG characterizes the lesions as testicular or extratesticular and, with color Doppler and power Doppler, flow and perfusion can also be assessed. Testicular and scrotal ultrasound is the primary modality for imaging most of the male reproductive system.It is relatively quick, relatively inexpensive, can be correlated quickly with the patient's signs and symptoms, and, most importantly, does not employ ionizing radiation. Gray-scale ultrasonography (US) in combination with color or power Doppler imaging is a well-accepted technique for assessing scrotal lesions and testicular perfusion (, 1–, 7). The clinical manifestations in many scrotal processes include pain, swelling, redness, and a palpable mass. Other common indications for use of scrotal Doppler include evaluation of trauma and infertility. Testicular Anatomy The normal adult testis is an egg-shaped gland which is approximately 3–5 cm in length and 2–4 cm in width and thickness with a volume of 4 cm 3 . In these situations, US with color Doppler is valuable in differentiating between medically treatable and surgical emergency of scrotum and avoiding unnecessary disastrous surgical exploration. Now, US with high frequency transducer in combination with color Doppler has become the imaging modality of choice for evaluation of acute scrotum. A testicular ultrasound is a test that obtains images of the testicles and the surrounding area in the scrotum. Your doctor may refer to a testicular ultrasound as a testicular sonogram or scrotal

Ultrasound - Scrotum. Ultrasound imaging of the scrotum uses sound waves to produce pictures of a male's testicles and surrounding tissues. It is the primary method used to help evaluate disorders of the testicles, epididymis (tubes immediately next to the testicles that collect sperm) and scrotum. Testicular torsion occurs when a testicle torts on the spermatic cord resulting in the cutting off of blood supply. The most common symptom is acute testicular pain and the most common underlying cause, a bell-clapper deformity.The diagnosis is often made clinically but if it is in doubt, an ultrasound is helpful in confirming the diagnosis. Color Doppler ultrasonography (US) is an increasingly important tool in the evaluation of the scrotum, especially in acute scrotal disorders. With this modality, arterial flow is readily detected in the normal spermatic cord and testis but is not seen in the epididymis; venous flow is not seen anywhere in the normal scrotum.
The common indications of color Doppler USG are in the acute scrotum, for evaluation of varicoceles and for assessing the vascularity of testicular malignancies.

testicular torsion) and intrascrotal and extrascrotal injuries (e.g., to the penis and perineum). Patients with trauma and scrotal pain should always undergo ultrasonography. High-fre quency ultrasound with a linear transducer and gray-scale, color, and spectral Doppler flow technique is the primary noninvasive modality for establishing an
30 Sep 2017 Color and spectral Doppler are essential elements of scrotal ultrasound because they provide documentation of testicular blood flow and Color Doppler examination of scrotum has been demonstrated to have significant impact on diagnosis of scrotal swelling. Our study was aimed to evaluate how Abstract: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: An acute scrotum is defined as acute pain with or without scrotal swelling, may be accompanied by local signs or Investigation of the value of scrotal Doppler ultrasound (DUS) in the diagnosis of acute scrotum and its impact on the treatment strategy was undertaken. testicle.
