“…3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. Metastases to the penis are rare, usually occur in the setting of a more widespread metastatic disease and can at times be difficult to distinguish from primary penile cancer on MRI. The most frequent primary cancers to metastasise to the penis are from genitourinary tumours and rectosigmoid carcinoma, with prostate and bladder being the commonest sites [12,14]. Typically penile metastases are seen as multiple discrete nodules within the corpora cavernosa and corpus spongiosum with a low signal intensity compared with the adjacent corpora ( Fig.…”

“…MRI with its superior soft tissue resolution is the most sensitive imaging modality for local staging [11]. The MRI characteristics are nonspecific but primary penile carcinoma is often a solitary, ill-defined and infiltrating mass hypointense to the adjacent corpora on both T1-and T2-weighted images [12]. The local extent, depth of tumour invasion, involvement of tunica, corpora, urethra and extension to adjacent structures can be accurately depicted using MRI and this information is valuable for surgical planning.…”

“…Closure of small tears with a thrombus may produce false-negative results. Magnetic resonance imaging is highly accurate in evaluation of penile fracture [11,20]; however, it is rarely performed in the acute setting and most penile traumas are managed via clinics and US.…”

“…Retrograde uretrography can be used to assess integrity of the urethra. US, CT and MR imaging can add information in complex traumas involving the pelvis [11].…”

“…Magnetic resonance imaging is at least as sensitive as ultrasonography to determine the extent of plaque formation and to assess whether the corpora cavernosa and the penile septum are involved ( Vossough et al 2002). Moreover, magnetic resonance imaging is more sensitive than grey scale ultrasonography in assessing non-calcifi ed plaques at the penile basis (Hauck et al 2003) and can be useful during the follow-up of patients undergoing conservative pharmacologic treatment as an objective measure of therapeutic response.…”
