3-dimensional ultrasound based demonstration of the posterior urethra during voiding combined with urodynamics.
A new method for continuous 3-dimensional demonstration of the posterior urethra during micturition is described. The method is based on a series of transverse ultrasonic scans through the urethra. It seems to provide on optimal model of the urethra and used in combination with urodynamics this technique also has a potential in diagnostics and urodynamic research.
