Overview[edit | edit source]
CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of testicular cancer.
CT Scan[edit | edit source]
- CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis may be helpful in the diagnosis of testicular cancer in case of metastasis.[1]
- CT scan is used to see if the cancer has spread to lymph nodes in the abdomen or chest. It can also check if testicular cancer has spread to the brain.[2][3]
