Service Providers for Duplex Study of Penile vessels
A Duplex Study of the penile vessels is a non-invasive ultrasound test used to evaluate blood flow in the arteries and veins of the penis. This test is primarily used to diagnose erectile dysfunction (ED) caused by vascular issues such as arterial blockages or venous leak. During the procedure, a gel is applied to the skin, and a transducer is placed on the penis to capture images and measure blood flow using Doppler technology. The study may include an injection of a medication to stimulate an erection for better assessment of blood flow. The test is generally painless, though mild discomfort may occur. Results help guide treatment options for ED, including medications or surgical interventions.
