Project PurposeProject Purpose
The goal of this project is to design The goal of this project is to design and build a pressure transducer to and build a pressure transducer to measure vasodilation patterns in measure vasodilation patterns in males with hypersexuality disorder males with hypersexuality disorder that can function in a MR environment that can function in a MR environment and also create a software program and also create a software program for data acquisition and storage. for data acquisition and storage.

Hypersexuality: seen as an out of control pattern of sexual thinking and acting, driven by anxiety reduction rather than desire, as a disorder similar to chemical addiction and closely related to obsessive-compulsiveness, and as a attributable to early childhood abuse and/or neglect.
