title: [Doppler color echography in the diagnosis of impotence].
abstract: This study reports the experience achieved with duplex and color Doppler ultrasonography in 120 impotent patients. The following morphodynamic parameters of the cavernosal arteries were studies before and after intracorporal injection of a mixture of vasoactive drugs: arterial diameter, wall pulsatility, morphology of the spectral waveform, peak systolic velocity, end diastolic velocity and flow volume. The veno-occlusive mechanism of the corpora cavernosa was studied directly by determination of flow along the deep dorsal vein of the penis and indirectly by serial evaluation of the diastolic flow of the cavernous arteries.
