Summary

Researchers are trying to determine whether there is additional utility to using vibroelastography, a noninvasive ultrasound technique to evaluate for the presence of tissue fibrosis, in conjunction with standard penile duplex Doppler ultrasound to assess erectile function (recovery) after prostate cancer surgery.

Conditions

  • Prostate Adenocarcinoma

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Ulrasound Vibroelastography (UVE)
