Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays an important role in imaging of penile pathologies due to its excellent soft tissue resolution and multiplanar imaging capabilities. This imaging review describes the MRI protocols and anatomical considerations in penile pathologies. MRI not only serves as a complementary tool to ultrasound in evaluation of trauma, infections, inflammatory diseases, and malignancies, but is also used as the definitive imaging modality for evaluation of penile prosthesis and complex cases.
期刊介绍:
Abdominal Radiology seeks to meet the professional needs of the abdominal radiologist by publishing clinically pertinent original, review and practice related articles on the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts and abdominal interventional and radiologic procedures. Case reports are generally not accepted unless they are the first report of a new disease or condition, or part of a special solicited section.
