title: Pinhold imaging: utility in testicular imaging in children.
abstract: 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.
