A member asked:

What are the chances of having testicular cancer even after having done multiple ultrasounds that were negative but have possible looks of it.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Looks?: If an ultrasound scanner looks at a testicle, and sees what possibly looks like a cancerous tumor, then the scan is not negative. On the other hand, if the scan is negative, that means the images do not have the looks of a tumor.
