Quantitative Assessment of Nocturnal Penile Tumescence and Rigidity In Normal Men Using a Home Monitor [PDF]
Journal of Andrology, 1989 Current methods now permit the measurement of nocturnal penile tumescence and rigidity (NPTR) in men with erectile dysfunction. But the relationship of rigidity to tumescence and the changes in rigidity with age have not been defined in nornal men. Accordingly, the authors assessed NPTR in 47 normal men using a portable, take‐home monitor (Rigiscan ...

Nocturnal penile erections: the diagnostic value of tumescence and rigidity activity units [PDF]
International Journal of Impotence Research, 2009 One of the most commonly used tests to distinguish psychogenic from organic erectile dysfunction (ED) is to monitor nocturnal penile tumescence using the RigiScan device and its new software called RigiScan Plus. To give a true estimate of the predictive ability of the new RigiScan software parameters, tumescence activity units (TAUs) and rigidity ...
