Conditions
Interventions
One intervention for this study, an intravenous injection of indocyanine green into the scrotum. Then utilising a specialist near infra-red (NIR) camera, an image of the CYP scrotum will be captured.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Diagnostic accuracy of ICG for testicular torsion as compared to non-torsion diagnosis, will be calculated by findings of fluorescence versus non-fluorescence compared to surgical outcomes of salvage versus non salvage at surgery | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. ICG diagnostic accuracy by tanner stage and skin pigmentation will be calculated by findings of fluorescence versus non-fluorescence compared to surgical outcomes of salvage versus non salvage at surgery 2. ICG to predict late testicular atrophy will be calculated by findings of fluorescence versus non-fluorescence compared to surgical outcomes of salvage versus non salvage at 12 month clinical review 3. Adverse reactions from ICG injection measured using SUSAR reporting for inpatient course 4. Family and CYP acceptance of diagnostic procedure measured using survey and qualitative methodology | — |
