What a Difference a Delay Makes! CT Urogram: a Pictorial Essay
Abdominal Radiology (2019) 44:3919–3934 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00261-019-02086-0 SPECIAL SECTION : UROTHELIAL DISEASE What a diference a delay makes! CT urogram: a pictorial essay Abraham Noorbakhsh1 · Lejla Aganovic1,2 · Noushin Vahdat1,2 · Soudabeh Fazeli1 · Romy Chung1 · Fiona Cassidy1,2 Published online: 18 June 2019 © This is a U.S. Government work and not under copyright protection in the US; foreign copyright protection may apply 2019 Abstract Purpose The aim of this pictorial essay is to demonstrate several cases where the diagnosis would have been difcult or impossible without the excretory phase image of CT urography. Methods A brief discussion of CT urography technique and dose reduction is followed by several cases illustrating the utility of CT urography. Results CT urography has become the primary imaging modality for evaluation of hematuria, as well as in the staging and surveillance of urinary tract malignancies. CT urography includes a non-contrast phase and contrast-enhanced nephrographic and excretory (delayed) phases. While the three phases add to the diagnostic ability of CT urography, it also adds potential patient radiation dose. Several techniques including automatic exposure control, iterative reconstruction algorithms, higher noise tolerance, and split-bolus have been successfully used to mitigate dose. The excretory phase is timed such that the excreted contrast opacifes the urinary collecting system and allows for greater detection of flling defects or other abnormali- ties. Sixteen cases illustrating the utility of excretory phase imaging are reviewed. Conclusions Excretory phase imaging of CT urography can be an essential tool for detecting and appropriately characterizing urinary tract malignancies, renal papillary and medullary abnormalities, CT radiolucent stones, congenital abnormalities, certain chronic infammatory conditions, and perinephric collections. -

Assessment of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms in Younger Men
MEN’S HEALTH ASSESSMENT OF LOWER URINARY TRACT SYMPTOMS IN YOUNGER MEN Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are common in the ageing male and represent a significant burden on both the patient and the healthcare system worldwide. 1,2 Accordingly, the majority of clinical trials and guidelines focus on the older patient, despite the fact that men below these ages will also present with many of the same symptoms. In this review, the authors explore the challenges of assessing and managing men below 50 years with LUTS.

It can mimic epididymitis and must be considered in all people presenting with sudden onset, severe testicular pain. Males less than 20 years are more likely to be diagnosed with testicular torsion, but it can occur at any age. Viability of the testis can be compromised as soon as 6-12 hours after the onset of sudden and severe testicular pain. SCOPE RNs must consult with or refer all suspect cases of epididymitis to a physician (MD) or nurse practitioner (NP) for clinical evaluation and a client-specific order for empiric treatment.

These sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are three of the most common affecting MSM in the UK. They are often grouped together because they have similar modes of transmission, symptoms and treatment.
