Preparation .This procedure is usually done as an emergency to determine the need for immediate surgery
Scrotal nuclear medicine scan is a study of the blood circulation in the scrotum using radioactive contrast agent to highlight obstruction.
The amount of radiation is so slight that even the sensitive testicular tissue is at minimum risk.
This test is used almost exclusively to differentiate infection in the testis (testicle) from twisting and infarction.
radioisotope, technetium-99, combined in a chemical (pertechnate) is injected intravenously while the patient is under a.gamma camera. It then creates pictures.that reveal where the isotope went in the scrotum.
Precautions.Clear scrotal ultrasound images are difficult to obtain if a patient is unable to remain still. It is not invasive and involves no radiation.
Three possible images appear.:Increased blood flow indicating infection. No blood flow indicating testicular torsion. Blood flow illuminated in a "donut" shaped pattern that indicates torsion that has resolved itself within the last few days
There are 10560 feet in a scrotal mile as it is twice as awesome as a regular mile!
"Scrotol" is likely a misspelling or a typo. It may have been intended to be "scrotal," which pertains to the scrotum, the pouch of skin that holds the testicles in males. If you have a specific question about the scrotal area, feel free to ask for more information.
testes are the two endocrine glands in the scrotal sac of a male.
Abnormal accumulation of fluid in the scrotal sac is called hydrocele.
Scrotal Calcification is raised bumps on the scrotum. They are caused by Calcium in the body that has attached itself in the sensitive scrotal skin. This is NOT an STD. It is a rare skin disorder that is not contagious. less than 8% of the population has this disorder.
No. It is good to have minimal fluid in your right scrotal sac. More fluid there gives you hydrocele.
