Peak systolic and end-diastolic velocity measurements were performed at first admission and on completion of 1-week proper antibiotic treatment. Data were retrospectively reviewed and compared with findings of a control group of 17 age-matched subjects.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Results: Of the 18 patients evaluated, 11 were found to have testicular tumors and 7 testicular inflammation. Peak systolic and end-diastolic velocities were significantly increased in patients with testicular tumor ( p&lt;0.002) and orchitis ( p&lt;0.01) versus normal controls. Follow-up examination on completion of 1-week antibiotic treatment demonstrated persistent high velocity values in patients with tumor and normalization of velocity values in patients with orchitis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusion: Our results support the concept that follow-up Doppler US examination is of value in patients with acute scrotal pain submitted to antibiotic treatment since it may contribute to the differentiation between orchitis and testicular tumor.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1080\/028418501127346549","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,7,23]],"date-time":"2004-07-23T15:10:35Z","timestamp":1090595435000},"page":"230-233","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Doppler ultrasonography in testicular tumors presenting with acute scrotal pain"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"42","author":[{"given":"K.","family":"Varsamidis","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, 2nd I.K.A.
