Abstract
AbstractThe evaluation for vasculogenic causes of impotence includes penile Doppler studies. These are often time‐consuming and tedious procedures. A retrospective study of the last 54 penile Doppler examinations was carried out to determine if an abbreviated study would accurately reflect the status of the penile vasculature. The frenular sound is easily auscultated. There is statistically significant correlation between frenular penile‐brachial index (PBI) and corporal PBI. We therefore recommend that the frenular PBI be used as a screening procedure. More complete Doppler studies including corporal measurements are only necessary when the frenular PBI is not normal.
