Smooth Muscle Cells of Penis in the Rat: Noninvasive Quantification with Shear Wave Elastography
Purpose. Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) of cavernosum play an important role in erection. It is of great significance to quantitatively analyze the level of SMCs in penis. In this study, we investigated the feasibility of shear wave elastography (SWE) on evaluating the level of SMCs in penis quantitativ...
