Answer to Question 1

1
Mumps is the most common viral cause of orchitis, with the orchitis occurring 4 to 7 days after the onset of mumps. Orchitis is not associated with prostatitis, type 2 diabetes mellitus, or renal insufficiency.

Answer to Question 2

2
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is now the diagnostic intervention of choice due to its noninvasive nature. Arthrography is seldom used today. Angiogram is used to confirm a diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. Bone scan is used to detect early bone disease.
