Abdominal Radiology (Journal) - Imaging of the Acute Scrotum: Keys to a Rapid Diagnosis of Acute Scrotal Disorders (July 2020)

Abdominal Radiology seeks to meet the professional needs of the abdominal radiologist by publishing clinically pertinent original, review and practice related articles on the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts and abdominal interventional and radiologic procedures. Case reports are generally not accepted unless they are the first report of a new disease or condition, or part of a special solicited section.

Participation in this activity consists of reviewing the article and taking a five question test. It is estimated that this activity will take approximately one hour per article. There is no charge for participating in this Journal CME activity.
