ED is a common male disease, often caused by neurological, vascular or psychological factors, and the diagnostic methods for ED vary widely. The nocturnal penile tumescence test (NPT) by RigiScan is an objective assessment method used mainly to detect ED and has gained a wide clinical application in recent years. This review focuses on the application value of the six RigiScan parameters in the diagnosis of ED, namely, the number of erections, total erection time, event rigidity of tip/base, event tumescence of tip/base, tumescence activated unit and rigidity activated unit, aiming to provide some help to clinicians and researchers with the application of NPT.
勃起功能障碍（ED）是一种常见的男性疾病，通常由神经、血管或心理因素引起，其诊断方法差异很大。RigiScan进行的夜间阴茎勃起测试（NPT）是一种主要用于检测勃起功能障碍的客观评估方法，近年来在临床上得到了广泛应用。本综述重点关注RigiScan的六个参数在勃起功能障碍诊断中的应用价值，即勃起次数、总勃起时间、阴茎头/阴茎基部的事件硬度、阴茎头/阴茎基部的事件肿胀度、肿胀激活单位和硬度激活单位，旨在为临床医生和研究人员应用NPT提供一些帮助。
