Advanced Testicular and Scrotal Diagnostics
A testicular and scrotal ultrasound scan is a primary diagnostic tool used to assess the health of the male reproductive organs. Using high-frequency sound waves, this scan allows our consultant radiologists to inspect the testicles, scrotum, and epididymis in real-time, providing immediate verbal feedback and a same-day written report.
Whether you are experiencing testicular pain, have noticed a lump or swelling, or are investigating fertility concerns, an ultrasound at LifeScan Clinic in Naxxar offers a private, professional, and reassuring experience.
Testicular Assessment
Evaluating Lumps & Masses
We check the size, symmetry, and tissue texture of the testicles to rule out or monitor:
- Testicular masses (distinguishing solid tumours from benign cysts)
- Epididymitis or orchitis (inflammation or infections)
- Hydroceles (fluid collections surrounding the testicles)
- Spermatoceles (benign fluid-filled cysts in the epididymis)
Vascular Screening
Varicocele & Blood Flow
Using high-resolution colour Doppler imaging, we evaluate:
- Varicoceles (enlarged veins in the scrotum linked to fertility issues)
- Blood flow to the testicles (ruling out testicular torsion in chronic presentations)
- Groin or scrotal hernias containing fat or bowel loops

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about Testicular & Scrotal Ultrasound.
Is a testicular ultrasound painful?
No. The procedure is entirely non-invasive and painless. The radiologist applies a warm, water-based gel and gently moves a handheld probe across the scrotum.
Do I need a GP referral to book?
No, a referral is not required. You can book an appointment directly if you have noticed a lump, pain, or swelling.
Can the scan distinguish between cancer and benign conditions?
Yes. Ultrasound is highly effective at distinguishing solid masses (which require urgent further investigation) from fluid-filled cysts (which are benign).
