1-High resolution ultrasonography with Doppler evaluation is used.
2-Findings:
-Enlarged testicle with diffuse hypo echoic pattern or it may be of multifocal hypo echoic areas.
-Many have normal testicular findings.
-Enlarged and hypo echoic epididymis.
-Scrotal skin thickening.
-Diagnosis was made by Doppler study of the blood flow reaching testicle.
-Scanning should be for at least one minute of duration without detection of blood flow reaching the testicle, or if there is a small single vessel in the symptomatic testicle when contralateral normal testicle shows diffuse flow.

| Color flow images of both testicles in a patient with left sided scrotal pain shows no flow to the testicle especially when compared with normal flow on the asymptomatic contralateral side consistent with acute left testicular torsion. |
