“…It was suggested that a repetition of ICI plus a PCDU test should be performed to avoid the influence of these physiological factors. 17 However, it was rarely accepted by the patients in clinics.…”

“…24 To determine arteriogenic ED, we performed two color Doppler tests, initially injecting PGE1 at the proposed dose of 10 mg 25 and subsequently doubling the dose to avoid falsely abnormal results, although repetition is not necessary in majority of the cases. 26 Thus, ED of the patients enrolled in this study was considered severe not only by the IIEF-5 score but because of the postinjection PSV as well.…”

“…After long-term treatment, in chronic erectile failure, PSV in cavernous arteries improved by some 34-35% after a mean period of 31-36 months of IC injections. 3,24 In 81-83% of patients' normal vascular values were found by DS after treatment compared to a normal cavernosal PSV found in 57-68% of patients before treatment. 25 Functional erections without injection were found in up to 54% of the patients, and no correlation was found between the total number of self-injections and PSV improvement.…”

“…25 Functional erections without injection were found in up to 54% of the patients, and no correlation was found between the total number of self-injections and PSV improvement. 3 However, in the above-mentioned studies, a clear relation between hemodynamic response and different etiologies has not been established. Sildenafil, a specific inhibitor of PDE5 in trabecular tissue, increases cGMP for some hours, sustaining smooth muscle relaxation.…”
