Color Doppler ultrasound facilitates investigation of blood flow in addition to imaging parenchymal abnormalities. To assess the clinical use of this technique we evaluated 25 consecutive patients with indications for intrascrotal imaging. Color flow imaging added useful information in all 11 patients evaluated for chronic scrotal pain and in 6 of 7 evaluated for acute scrotal pain. In contrast, color flow ultrasound provided little additional information in 7 patients with intrascrotal masses. Color flow ultrasound imaging is a promising method that may prove to be useful for assessment of selected patients with intrascrotal pathological conditions.
彩色多普勒超声除了能够对实质脏器异常进行成像外,还便于对血流情况进行检查。为评估该技术的临床应用价值,我们对连续25例有阴囊内成像指征的患者进行了评估。在对11例慢性阴囊疼痛患者及7例急性阴囊疼痛患者中的6例进行评估时,彩色血流成像均提供了有用信息。相比之下,彩色血流超声在7例阴囊内肿物患者中几乎未提供额外信息。彩色血流超声成像术是一种很有前景的方法,可能被证明对评估某些患有阴囊内病理状况的患者有用。
