AB  - Testicular imaging is a simple and noninvasive procedure used to study the vascular perfusion of the testicles. It is a reliable method for diagnosis of testicular torsion and inflammatory processes such as epididymitis. Using a wide-field-of-view scintillation camera with a parallel hole collimator, a dynamic flow study and static images are obtained following a bolus injection of [99mTc] sodium pertechnetate.
