Abstract

Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the scrotum has been used as a valuable supplemental diagnostic modality in evaluating scrotal pathology, mostly recommended in cases of inconclusive sonographic findings. Because of the advantages of the technique, MR imaging of the scrotum may provide valuable information in the detection and characterization of various scrotal diseases. The technique may accurately differentiate intratesticular from extratesticular mass lesions and provide important information in the preoperative characterization of the histologic nature of scrotal masses. An accurate estimation of the local extent of testicular carcinomas in patients for whom testis-sparing surgery is planned is possible.

摘要

阴囊的磁共振（MR）成像已被用作评估阴囊病变的一种有价值的补充诊断方法，主要推荐用于超声检查结果不明确的病例。由于该技术的优势，阴囊的MR成像在各种阴囊疾病的检测和特征描述方面可能提供有价值的信息。该技术可以准确区分睾丸内和睾丸外的肿块病变，并在术前对阴囊肿块的组织学性质进行特征描述时提供重要信息。对于计划进行保留睾丸手术的患者，有可能准确估计睾丸癌的局部范围。
