Color Doppler sonography of the scrotum.
Color Doppler sonography is a noninvasive, rapidly performed, and relatively inexpensive imaging technique for use in the diagnosis of scrotal pathology. Its major and proven role is in the evaluation of patients with acute scrotal pain, for which it is likely to become the primary imaging modality. Further work is needed to determine whether color Doppler is a useful diagnostic adjunct in evaluating patients with varicoceles and scrotal masses.
