The internal pudendal artery can be visualized with Color Doppler in longitudinal view deep to the deep transverse perineal muscle. The artery can be tracked posteriorly towards the ischial tuberosity. The pudendal nerve runs alongside the internal pudendal artery either medial or lateral to the artery.
