Penile Evaluation: An Illustrated Review

Abstract

High-frequency ultrasound is the imaging modality of choice for evaluating penile pathology because of its easy access, low cost, and patient tolerance (The Penis, Diagnostic Ultrasound, second edtion. Boca Raton: CRC Press; 2007:957–978). This pictorial review will illustrate the sonographic features of emergent and nonemergent penile conditions such as penile fracture, spongial tear, urethral injury, various types of priapism, erectile dysfunction, penile abscess, and Mondor disease.
