Computed tomography has been considered the preferred imaging modality for the surveillance of patients with testicular tumors (TTs) following radical orchiectomy. However, because of the concerns of frequent radiation exposure and intravenous iodinated contrast, biparametric magnetic resonance imaging (bpMRI) is a valid and safer alternative in the surveillance of patients with TT, instead of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging. In this review article, we propose a protocol algorithm that utilizes bpMRI in the evaluation of patients after radical orchiectomy for TTs.
