The role of imaging in the diagnosis, staging, and management of testicular cancer
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this article is to describe recent developments in imaging patients with testicular germ cell tumors (GCTs). CONCLUSION: Most patients with testicular GCTs can now be expected to be cured, so the focus on management moves toward identifying patients who need more aggressive treatment and avoiding long-term complications. CT remains central in the selection of a management strategy, although the roles of MRI and PET continue to evolve.
