Pharmacocavernosometry and pharmacocavernosography are essential for the diagnosis of veno-occlusive dysfunction. Pressure fading obtained by cavernosometry correlates excellently with results of intracavernosal pharmacon testing. Venous drainage as visualized by pharmacocavernosography is essential for localization of the venous channels especially if venocorrective surgery is planned.
