- W2149649184 abstract "Purpose To evaluate the feasibility of using real-time sonoelastography (RTE) for the differentiation and characterization of testicular lesions. Materials and Methods Institutional review board approval was obtained for this retrospective study, and the requirement to obtain informed consent was waived. Fifty patients (mean age, 42 years; age range, 18–81 years) with testicular lesions detected with gray-scale ultrasonography (US) and color and/or power Doppler US were evaluated with RTE between December 2004 and August 2010 to assess tissue elasticity of the testes. Stiff or “hard” lesions were suspected of being malignant. Testicular lesions with normal or decreased tissue stiffness (“soft” lesions) were considered benign. Findings from surgery and histopathologic examination were used as the reference standard in 34 cases, and findings from clinical and US follow-up were used as the reference standard in 16 cases. Sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, positive predictive value, and diagnostic accuracy were calculated. Results Thirty-four of the 50 lesions (68%) were testicular tumors and 16 (32%) were of nontumorous origin. RTE showed the presence of hard lesions in all cases of testicular tumors and three cases of nontumorous lesions. Four lesions with an uncertain diagnosis when tested with gray-scale US and color and/or power Doppler US alone were soft at RTE and showed nontumorous character at follow-up. RTE showed a sensitivity of 100%, a specificity of 81%, a negative predictive value of 100%, a positive predictive value of 92%, and an accuracy of 94% in the diagnosis of testicular tumors. Conclusion RTE demonstrated all testicular tumors as lesions with increased tissue stiffness. Because of its higher specificity, RTE can provide additional information in cases with indeterminate US findings. © RSNA, 2012" @default.
