Potential use of ultrasound in place of X-ray fluoroscopy in urodynamics.
A moving picture can be obtained using an ultrasonic scanning probe in the rectum to provide information about the bladder and urethra in the same projection as for lateral cystography. The method has potential as a substitute for cinecystography but there are a number of problems still to be overcome.
