Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) is a new diagnostic technique with great opportunities of application in the field of the penile pathologies. A new interest for this diagnostic technique was born when the use of vasoactive agents, like papaverine or PGE1, and the use of para-magnetic contrast agents, like gadolinium, were introduced. The introduction of dynamic NMR in andrology allowed a better definition of anatomical details and a better knowledge of penile micro-circulation. N.M.R. is showing a great diffusion, because of a little invasiveness (X-rays are not used in this technique). The Authors show a wide spread of possible applications of NMR in penile pathologies, helping in the interpretation of the images. In conclusion the authors describe NMR as a diagnostic technique with great possibilities of improvement, even if the high costs don't allow a better diffusion until now.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008279 Magnetic Resonance Imaging Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.

D010411 Penile Induration A condition characterized by hardening of the PENIS due to the formation of fibrous plaques on the dorsolateral aspect of the PENIS, usually involving the membrane (tunica albuginea) surrounding the erectile tissue (corpus cavernosum penis). This may eventually cause a painful deformity of the shaft or constriction of the urethra, or both.

D010413 Penis The external reproductive organ of males. It is composed of a mass of erectile tissue enclosed in three cylindrical fibrous compartments. Two of the three compartments, the corpus cavernosa, are placed side-by-side along the upper part of the organ. The third compartment below, the corpus spongiosum, houses the urethra.
