摘要
Objective This article will review the workup of infertility in a male. The imaging of common conditions associated with infertility, including varicocele, ejaculatory duct obstruction, seminal vesicle agenesis, and undescended testis, will be shown, as well as other conditions that can be incidentally seen. Conclusion The analysis of infertility in males has become more common in recent years. The practicing radiologist should be familiar with the evaluation of the infertile man and the common radiologic findings and disease processes associated with infertility.
