Author

Schmitz, David and Safranek, Sarah

Subjects
*SPERMATIC cord torsion, *TESTIS abnormalities, *DOPPLER ultrasonography, *PEDIATRIC urology diagnosis, *MEDICAL radiology, *SPERMATIC cord diseases, *TORSION abnormality (Anatomy), *DIAGNOSIS
Abstract

The article cites a finding which evaluates the relevance of the cremasteric reflex during physical examination in diagnosing the presence of testicular torsion. It notes, however, that some case reports showed a coexistence between the two factors. It also offers several resolutions from the authorities regarding the problem which includes Doppler ultrasound from the European Society for Pediatric Urology (ESPU), and radionuclide scrotal ultrasound (RNSI) from the American College of Radiology.

3. MRI-based imaging shows value in pediatric diagnoses.

Author

Goldman, Erinn H.

Subjects
*MAGNETIC resonance imaging, *PEDIATRIC urology diagnosis, *DIAGNOSTIC imaging, *VESICO-ureteral reflux, *BLADDER diseases
Abstract

The article reports on the value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosing and evaluating pediatric urologic conditions. MRI importance is based on several studies presented at the 2006 American Academy of Pediatrics Section on Urology annual meeting in Atlanta, Georgia. Researchers report that MRI is superior to ultrasound in the detection of renal damage induced by vesicoureteral reflux.

4. Molecular diagnostic may obviate need for cultures.

Author

Allen, Penny

Subjects
*MOLECULAR diagnosis, *PEDIATRIC urology diagnosis, *BACTERIAL cultures, *UROLOGY, *MEDICAL practice
Abstract

The article focuses on the use of the molecular diagnostic technology in the advancement of pediatric urology which will be discussed in the American Urological Association (AUA) annual meeting to be held in San Francisco, California. The use of the molecular diagnostic technology technique can help identify infectious bacteria without the need for cultures. This advancement in pediatric urology has been anticipated to improve the practice of medicine and adult urology.
