Felt/Ultrasound may: On examination of penis docors may feel the hardened tissue caused by the disease,often may need when penis is erect. If disease develop rapidly a biopsy may be needed by removing the scar tissue from the affected area You need to have scar tissue also called plaque, forms along the length of penis in the Corpora Cavernosa.So you have to have plaque/scar Ultrasound may show the plaque/scar
