Pautas de la EFSUMB sobre Ecografía Multiparamétrica Testicular

Multiparametric ultrasound (MPUS) integrates B-mode, Doppler techniques and microvascular imaging, contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and elastography, enhancing diagnostic precision across a wide spectrum of scrotal diseases. Developed under the auspices of the European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (EFSUMB), these guidelines provide evidence-based recommendations for the clinical use of MPUS in scrotal imaging. Based on the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine framework, this document outlines the diagnostic value of MPUS in acute scrotal pain, trauma, infertility, focal and extratesticular lesions, cryptorchidism, and testicular incidentalomas. The recommendations highlight CEUS as the reference method for vascular assessment and elastography as a complementary tool for tissue characterization. These guidelines aim to standardize MPUS practice and promote its integration into routine scrotal imaging.
