Ultrasonography of the lower urinary tract.
Ultrasound evaluation in urogynaecology has evolved. Comparison with the old standard, lateral chain urethrocystography, as well as basic investigations of the sonographic technique and standardizations have created a basis for a new imaging standard and for further developments in urogynaecology. The recent progress indicates that sonography holds the key to the future of imaging in urogynaecology.
