Introduction In the development of terminology of the lower urinary tract, due to its increasing
complexity, the terminology for male lower urinary tract and pelvic floor symptoms and …

Context Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) represent one of the most common clinical
complaints in adult men and have multifactorial aetiology. Objective To develop European …

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this prospective study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of
detrusor wall thickness (DWT), free uroflowmetry, postvoid residual urine, and prostate …

PURPOSE: We investigate the safety and efficacy of suprapubic transvesical prostatectomy,
and the change in bladder wall thickness after surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We …

Detrusor wall thickness decreases continuously while the bladder fills to 50% of its capacity
and then remains constant until 100%. Therefore, detrusor wall measurements were …

Aims Measurements of detrusor wall thickness (DWT) are used to diagnose bladder outlet
obstruction (BOO). No values of DWT exist in healthy adults so far. These values, however …

PURPOSE: We estimated the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound detrusor thickness
measurement for BOO and investigated whether this method can replace PFS for the …

Purpose: Ultrasound estimated bladder weight was compared to pressure-flow studies to
test the ability of ultrasound estimated bladder weight to predict infravesical obstruction …

PURPOSE:: In the last decade interest has arisen in the use of ultrasound derived
measurements of bladder wall thickness, detrusor wall thickness and ultrasound estimated …

Purpose: Previous studies have shown that the initial reaction of the rabbit bladder to partial
bladder outlet obstruction is increased blood flow at day 1 and a return to baseline blood …
