Abstract
MRI is a highly accurate imaging modality for the diagnosis of testicular torsion. However, it could not be used to rule out intermittent torsion and the clinical use of negative findings for an MRI torsion test was less than 100% specificity. Because this was a preliminary retrospective study, the true clinical value of MRI should be evaluated by prospective studies.
