Pinhold imaging: utility in testicular imaging in children.
Pinhole imaging of the testis was done in ten boys with suspected testicular torsion. In three of the ten cases, pinhold images were easier to interpret than images obtained with a converging collimator. In six of the ten cases, pinhold images were required for interpretation of the study, because converging images could not be interpreted.
