CEUS findings of iatrogenic penetrating testicular injury post-biopsy. B-mode US image (a) obtained 24 h following core biopsy of the testis demonstrating two hypoechoic lesions within the central testis (arrowheads), which have typical appearances of intratesticular haematomas. CEUS (b) confirmed the avascular nature of the suspected haematomas (arrowheads). A separate patient with a histologically proven testicular tumour. For comparison, (c) B-mode shows a well-defined hypoechoic lesion (thick arrow). d CEUS demonstrated intrinsic enhancement (thin arrow) in keeping with a testicular tumour, unlike an avascular haematoma
