Visualization of prostatic nerves using polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We demonstrate that polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) can identify the cavernous nerve in the human and rat prostate ex vivo based on its birefringence. PS-OCT may be useful for nerve preservation during radical prostatectomy.
