There may be a role for contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), however I do not think this is true for routine surveillance especially in the context of stable/shrinking resid...
If the testicle canbe completely palpated and is of normal consistency, ultrasonographyis not mandatory. However, if the hydrocele prevents adequatepalpation of the testis, an ultrasound should be performed toassist with description of the testicle, differentiate a hydrocelefrom an inguinal hernia,...
