Due to its ease of use, lack of ionizing radiation exposure, noninvasive nature, reproducibility, low cost, and ease of accessibility, ultrasound (US) is the preferred imaging modality for evaluating scrotal disease. High-resolution US and color Doppler better highlight scrotal and testicular diseases because of the scrotum's superficial anatomy. The genital organs are subjected to damaging ionizing radiation during CT, while MRI is both costly and uncommon. The male genital system is concerned the scrotum and scrotal contents are very much important structures .If any disease affecting the scrotum or scrotal content can affect the fertility directly or indirectly. Scrotal masses may be intratesticular or extratesticular. In detecting and assessing scrotal diseases, high-frequency USG and color Doppler sonography have good sensitivity and specificity. Furthermore, the lack of ionizing radiation, simplicity, wide availability, cost-efficiency, and reproducibility make it a highly important method for scrotal diseases. Sonography, both Grayscale and Color Doppler were found to be 93.33% sensitive in the diagnosis of Scrotal Pathology. The present study concludes that High-Resolution USG along with Color Doppler imaging and Power Doppler should be used as the first imaging modality in the evaluation of Scrotal Pathologyddd
