The engineering analysis of bioheat equation and penile hemodynamic relationships in the diagnosis of erectile dysfunction: part I—theoretical study and mathematical modeling
Abstract:The extent to which skin surface bioheat perfusion predicts penile physiological response such as an erection has not been extensively investigated. A biomechanical engineering study was performed to compare bioheat distribution on penile skin surface resulting from an induced erection at steady state to examine the efficacy of such method as an adjunct tool for the diagnosis and classification of erectile dysfunction (ED) due to different etiology. We based our arguments on the principle that blood vessel act… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
