Penile ultrasound mainly refers to penile cavernous Doppler ultrasound, which is used to examine and diagnose vascular erectile dysfunction.
When a patient is suffering from vascular erectile dysfunction, after the penis is erected, the spongy body congestion will be abnormal, resulting in erectile dysfunction, and premature ejaculation may also occur. It is mostly necessary to analyze the patient’s current penile function through penile cavernous Doppler ultrasonography.
During the examination, it is usually necessary to inject drugs to dilate the cavernous body at the root of the penis, followed by temporary ligation of the root of the penis with a tourniquet, and then ultrasonography is performed to analyze the condition of the patient’s penis. It should be noted that during the examination, it is necessary to ensure that the penis is continuously erect, if weakness occurs, vasodilatation is not obvious, and the examination effect is relatively poor.
In addition, during the examination process, patients may experience localized penile discomfort, which is relatively normal, and patients need to endure the appropriate persistence.
If there is any abnormality in the examination, the patient should be treated under the guidance of the doctor in time.
