چکیده

Recently, numerous research and, techniques have been developed for analyzing And diagnosing testicular tumors, beyond conventional B-mode imaging, including color Doppler ultrasound, contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and tissue elastography used in the characterization of both benign and malignant intratesticular lesion. The purpose of this review study was to summarize the testicular disease and developed ultrasound techniques for analyzing and assessment of testicular disease. We researched electronic data bases of the Evaluation of testicular disease using ultrasound for diagnosing and assessment. This study describes some of the more common testicular disease, provides a description of diagnostic procedures in evaluation of some testicular disease such as Benign lesions, hydroceles, avaricoceles, Epididymitis ,Indirect inguinal hernias ,Ultra Sonography is also helpful in patients who present with chronic nonspecific symptoms, in whom a definitive diagnosis is not easily made. Ultra Sonography has been shown to decrease the number of emergency scrotal explorations and the length of hospital stay, and, thus, reduce the cost of management of the acute scrotum .This review provides a description Ultra Sonography for testicular disease, although clinical experience remains limited, careful evaluation of safety as well as validation of diagnostic and prognostic value of this technique in clinical trials is still needed.

O-1: Suitability of Epididymal and Testicular Ultrasonography and Computerized Image Analysis for Assessment of Current and Future Semen Quality in The Ram

Background: Breeding soundness evaluation (BSE) is the primary assessment for determining reproductive potential of male animals. This method, however, cannot be used to evaluate semen frequently or to predict future semen quality. Computerized analysis of ultrasonographic images provides information on histophysiological changes in male reproductive organs.We hypothesized that: 1. semen parame...
