摘要: 生殖道是一个复杂的解剖器官,它同时具有内分泌学和解剖学上的功能特征。核医学在检查生殖和性功能方面有一定价值,包括男性睾丸和阴茎海绵体的灌注情况,女性输卵管的传输情况及亚临床型精索静脉曲张。这些检查方法的成功应用证实了它们具有重要的临床实用价值。Abstract: The genital tract is a complex anatomic region with overlapping endocrinologic,anatomic,and functional features.Nuclear medicine has value in examining functional aspects of reproductive and sexual function,ranging from testicular or cavernosal perfusion in the male,to fallopian tube transport in the female.Blood pool imaging has been helpful in detecting subclinical varicoceles.Proper understanding of the role that these tests play is important for their success and credibility.
