Color Doppler sonography (CDS) was used to evaluate 35 adult males with acute scrotal discomfort. Correlative nuclear scintigraphy was performed in 15 patients. Surgical correlation was available in 10 patients with clinical follow-up in the remaining 25. The complete absence of intratesticular color flow was used as our criterion for testicular ischemia. This was found to be 100% sensitive and 100% specific in 8 patients with surgically confirmed testicular ischemia. Spontaneous detorsion was noted in one patient with hyperemia demonstrated by color imaging. Increased color flow was found in 20 patients with the clinical impression of scrotal inflammation. Nuclear scintigraphy and color Doppler imaging had 100% agreement in 15 patients. Color Doppler sonography is a useful and highly accurate diagnostic method in the evaluation of patients with the acute scrotal syndrome. Color flow imaging is comparable to nuclear scintigraphy in the diagnosis of testicular ischemia.
