Özet

Introduction & Objectives: The use of Scrotal Ultrasound (SUS) has resulted in increased detection of indeterminate testicular lesions, resulting in a clinical and management challenge.

The aim of this systematic review was to determine the diagnostic test accuracy of SUS or scrotal MRI in differentiating malignant and benign disease in men presenting with an indeterminate lesion
