Hello doctor, I want to know about the penile color Doppler of the cavernosal arteries in erectile dysfunction. The color Doppler of cavernosal arteries was done after an intracavernosal injection of 0.8 ml of Papaverine (30 mg/ml) into the right corpus cavernosum. The initial diameter of the cavernosal artery prior to Papaverine injection was 0.5 mm, and after the injection, it became 0.9 mm. The erection started in three to five minutes and completed after 10 to 12 minutes. A grade-2 erection was noted. The peak systolic velocities reached up to 13 cm/s in 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, the diastolic pressure reduced. The flow was present continuously in the dorsal vein. The PSV in a flaccid state was 0 and in the erect state at 5 minutes was 7.45 cm/sec, at 10 minutes was 12.65 cm/sec and at 15 minutes was 8.0 cm/sec. The EDV was 0 and RI was 1 at 5, 10, and 15 minutes. Are these reports good or is there a problem? I am married since 13 months, but not sexually active. Is this the reason for my erectile dysfunction?
