Infertility affects 15-20% of the reproductive age range population; the male factor accounts for up to 40-60% of these. With female factor infertility catching most of the limelight in research, diagnosis and treatment, the other half of the problem has not been duly addressed. Imaging has an important role to play in the evaluation of male infertility, especially to identify correctible (obstructive) causes. We review the scrotal, trans-rectal sonographic and Doppler findings in infertile men to aid in the accurate diagnosis and proper management of such patients.
不孕症影响着15%至20%的育龄人口;其中男性因素占40%至60%。由于女性因素导致的不孕症在研究、诊断和治疗方面备受关注,问题的另一半却未得到充分解决。影像学在男性不孕症评估中发挥着重要作用,尤其是用于识别可纠正(梗阻性)病因。我们回顾了不育男性的阴囊、经直肠超声及多普勒检查结果,以协助对此类患者进行准确诊断和恰当管理。
