DOPPLER IN THE ACUTE SCROTUM
L. E. DERCHI

The acute scrotum – imaging techniques
• US - the workhorse
– Doppler is an integral part of the US examination;
– In no situation more than this, data provided by Doppler are of outmost clinical importance
• MRI and CT - for a few special indications
– if US findings are inconclusive
– MRI: when intratesticular hematoma or infarction are suspected (but maybe CEUS can be indicated for infarctions)
– CT: when scrotal gas is suspected
