Testing Endothelial Function of Brachial and Cavernous Arteries in Patients with Erectile Dysfunction

The method of ultrasound assessment of postocclusive changes in the diameter of cavernosal arteries is  reliable and  a  highly informative tool for diagnosis of arteriogenic ED. It cannot be substituted by techni‐cally simpler method of ultrasound examination of brachial arteries, while results of the latter could help to define the necessity of performing an examination of cavernous arteries.
