Overview
MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of testicular cancer.
MRI
- MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of testicular cancer. Findings on MRI suggestive of testicular cancer include:[1][2][1]
- Extension of the metastasis
- Differentiating the seminomas from the nonseminomatous germ cells tumors
- Metastases of testicular cancer to the brain
- MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of testicular cancer. MRI may be helpful in localizing the extension of the metastasis and differentiating the seminomas from the nonseminomatous germ cells tumors.[1]
- MRI may be performed to detect metastases of testicular cancer to the brain.
