For diagnosis of incontinence the exact analysis of the dynamics of micturition is of great importance, primarily in order to evaluate the urethral flow-resistance and detrusor activity. Extending already existing methods for the evaluation of urodynamics, we developed a complex method of cine/pressure/flow/cystourethrography. All data were recorded and simultaneously stored on videotape. Especially in cases of incontinence with a neurogenic component important information for a causative therapy was gained using this complex investigation. Thus in 20 patients with incontinence, studied for exclusion of a neurogenic component, we found two patients with a neurogenic bladder dysfunction that had been unknown prior to the examination. The neurogenic component in each case had remained unnoticed by usual routine diagnostic procedures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
