Optimal imaging techniques across the spectrum of testicular cancer.

ABSTRACT

Over the years, several imaging techniques have been used in the diagnosis and management of testicular cancer. We compartmentalize disease stages into preorchiectomy, stage 1, initial stage 2 and 3 and postchemotherapy stage 2 and 3. We then elaborate on various imaging modalities that are relevant to each of these stages. We also describe evolving imaging tools that have shown promise. We attempt to provide a comprehensive review of these techniques over the spectrum of testicular cancer.
