A scrotum scan, or testicular ultrasound, is performed to evaluate the testicles and surrounding structures in infants and children.
Why get a Scrotum Scan for kids?
A scrotum scan uses ultrasound to check if a boy’s testicles and scrotum area are healthy. The doctor may recommend it if:
– Your child complains of pain or swelling in his testicles
– You notice anything unusual like lumps
– His doctor wants to investigate a possible problem
What happens during the scan?
The tech will ask your child to lie comfortably on a bed. They’ll gently move a handheld device over his scrotum. This device uses soundwaves to create live pictures of the testicles. It only takes 5-10 minutes, may vary based on complexity of the findings. No needles or anything invasive.
Will it hurt?
No, it shouldn’t hurt. The radiologist gently glides the device over the skin. Your child might feel slight pressure, but there is no pain involved. This is a quick and easy method for the doctor to check if everything looks normal or if further examination is needed.
Preparation
No special preparation is needed. Advised to wear comfortable clothes that allow easy access to the scrotum area.
What happens during this scan?

Reports: The reports will be available 10-15 minutes after the scan is complete.
