MRI assessment of the influence of body position on the shape and position of the urinary bladder

摘要: Objective: Continuous surveillance of patients' bladder volume may be benefit during the treatment various urologic disorders. In order to design optimal monitoring equipment, information about shape and position bladder, not at least in relation posture, is crucial. The purpose this study was consequently evaluate influence body on change bladder. Material Methods: MRI performed three young volunteers posture changes. scans transverse, frontal sagittal planes were recorded bladders sizes. midpoint determined. Moreover, account for its shape, compactness cross‐section calculated basis perimeter area. Results: For medial–lateral cranial–caudal positions, maximal displacements 4 5 mm, respectively. ventral–dorsal direction displacement vari...
