2 labs availableLast Updated On Sunday, May 18, 2025
What is the Scrotal Ultrasound?
In the Ultra Sound USG Scrotal Doppler USG, the radiologist will look at the scrotum and then perform an ultrasound on it as well. Scrotum is the flesh-covered sac that hangs between the legs at the base of the penis and has the testicles. The testicles are male reproductive organs that are responsible for synthesizing hormones like testosterone. Along with a small tube called the vas deferens they are located in the scrotum. Other things like small organs, blood vessels, are also present there.
When the ultrasound needs to be performed, the patient needs to lie on the back with spreading legs. A cloth will be draped by the health care provider across your thighs under the scrotum. Then to support them, wide strips of adhesive tape will be applied to the area. This will make the scrotal sac to slightly raise and the testicles will be lying side by side. Then a radiologist will apply clear gel to the scrotal sac. It will help to transmit the sound waves. Then the radiologist will handle the probe known as a transducer. It will be moved over the scrotum by the technologist. High high-frequency sound waves will be sent in by the ultrasound machine. With the help of reflection, these waves will form an image. That image will further help the doctor to figure out what is wrong with you or if you are completely normal.
