About this test

A USG scrotum is a safe, painless, radiation-free ultrasound of the testes, epididymis, and surrounding structures, often combined with Doppler to assess blood flow.

It helps diagnose testicular torsion (a surgical emergency), epididymo-orchitis (infection), testicular tumors, hydrocele, varicocele, epididymal cysts, and inguinal hernia. It also evaluates scrotal injuries and undescended testes.

It is important in male infertility evaluation, as varicocele is a common treatable cause. Any solid testicular lump found needs prompt further evaluation for cancer.

Questions about this test

When should I get the USG Scrotum test?

You should get a USG scrotum if you have testicular pain, swelling, a lump, heaviness, or a dragging sensation in the scrotum. Sudden, severe testicular pain needs emergency scanning to rule out torsion. It is also recommended after scrotal injury, for infertility evaluation, suspected varicocele or hernia, and for undescended testes in boys.

How should I prepare for the USG Scrotum test?

No special preparation or fasting is required for a USG scrotum. Wear loose, comfortable clothing, as you will need to undress from the waist down and may be given a gown or towel. Avoid applying lotions to the area. Bring previous reports or semen analysis, and if you have sudden severe pain, go immediately without delay.

Do I require fasting for the USG Scrotum test?

No, fasting is not required for a USG scrotum. You can eat and drink normally and take your regular medicines before the scan. Wear loose clothing for comfort, and if you have sudden severe testicular pain, seek emergency care immediately without waiting. The scan usually takes 15–30 minutes.
