I-scrotal ultrasound

I-scrotal ultrasound isivivinyo semifanekiso esibheka i-scrotum. Yisikhwama esimbozwe yinyama elenga phakathi kwemilenze phansi kwepipi futhi siqukethe amasende.

Amasende yizitho zokuzala zabesilisa ezikhiqiza isidoda ne-testosterone testosterone. Zitholakala esikhungweni sokuhlambalaza, kanye nezinye izitho ezincane, imithambo yegazi, kanye neshubhu elincane elibizwa nge-vas deferens.

Ulala ngomhlane uvule imilenze. Umhlinzeki wezokunakekelwa kwezempilo usika indwangu emathangeni akho ngaphansi kwesikhwama noma asebenzise imichilo ebanzi yeteyipu yokunamathela kuleyo ndawo. Isaka eli-scrotal lizokhushulwa kancane amasende alele eceleni.

Kufakwa ijeli ecacile esikhwameni sokusiza ukusiza ukudlulisa amaza omsindo. I-probe ephathwa ngesandla (i-ultrasound transducer) bese ihanjiswa phezu kwesikhotha nguchwepheshe wezobuchwepheshe. Umshini we-ultrasound uthumela amaza omsindo wemvamisa ephezulu. La magagasi akhombisa izindawo ezithombeni ukuze akhe isithombe.

Akukho ukulungiselela okukhethekile okudingekayo kulolu vivinyo.

Kukhona ukungakhululeki okuncane. Ijeli eqhubayo ingazizwa ibanda kancane futhi imanzi.

I-testicle ultrasound yenziwa uku:

• Siza ukuthola ukuthi kungani isende elilodwa noma womabili asekhulile
• Bheka isisindo noma isigaxa kusende elilodwa noma womabili
• Thola isizathu sobuhlungu emasendeni
• Khombisa ukuthi igazi ligeleza kanjani emasendeni

Amasende nezinye izindawo ezisesikhotheni kubonakala njengokujwayelekile.

Izimbangela ezingaba khona zemiphumela engajwayelekile zifaka:

• Ukuqoqwa kwemithambo emincane kakhulu, ebizwa nge-varicocele
• Ukutheleleka noma ithumba
• I-cyst engeyona umdlavuza
• Ukusonteka kwesende okuvimba ukuhamba kwegazi, okubizwa ngokuthi yi-testicular torsion
• Isimila samasende

Azikho izingozi ezaziwayo. Ngeke uvezwe emisebeni ngalolu vivinyo.

Kwezinye izimo, i-Doppler ultrasound ingasiza ekuboneni ukugeleza kwegazi ngaphakathi kwesikhwama. Le ndlela ingaba wusizo ezimeni zokuqothuka kwamasende, ngoba ukugeleza kwegazi kusende elisontekile kungancipha.
