“…They proposed that their perineal ultrasonographic method was superior to lateral cystourethrography and other ultrasonographic methods for the assessment of the patient with SUI in every aspect. Gordon et al [24] suggested that the transrectal ultrasonography performed by Nishizawa et al [11], Perkas and Friedland [12] and Brown et al [13] as uncomfortable for the patient owing to the large diameter of the probe, and also limited the movement of the UVJ during stress. There were similar problems with transvaginal ultrasonography, and it was found the presence of a cystocele would disrupt the view.…”

Evaluation of the urethrovesical junction in stress urinary incontinence is essential. For this reason the Q-tip test, a clinical test with debatable specificity; lateral cystourethrography, a conventional method; and videourethrocystography, a sophisticated method, have been in use. Because ultrasonography is inexpensive, reliable, easy to apply and free of any contrast material and X-ray exposure, it has practically replaced all the former methods in the evaluation of the urethrovesical junction in stress urinary incontinence patients within the last decade.

“…Nishikawa and Perkash pioneered the use of transrectal echography in the study of pelvic floor and urinary pathologies [8]. Their approach was useful in monitoring the dynamics of the urethrovesical joint and the state of the vesical base proper, both in resting and stress conditions, and featured high sensitivity in diagnosing urethrovesical dysynergyaa.…”

In order to assess the state and pathology of the woman's pelvis minor, a number of methods are commonly used among practitioners, encompassing clinical exploration, radiology, MRN, urodynamics, endoscopy and echography.Echography has been poorly used in clinical pelvic exploration and its reliability is actually a matter of controversy [1]. However, echographic surveys can provide us with valuable gynecological data on the state and pathologies of the soft pelvis, within the genital regions or even going beyond them, i.e. the rectal channel, bladder, urethra, anus, vascular plexuses, and all of their supporting tissues.At our research unit, we have been employing Transvaginal Ultrasound echography (TVU) for a long time in conjunction with other pelvis-focused methods in order to study different kinds of pelvic alterations. TVU has proven to be friendly to use, fast, harmless and inexpensive, allowing serial explorations and producing high-quality dynamic images (loop-cinema, video-tape). Furthermore, this method is fairly aseptic in that the occurrence of faeces in the rectal ampolla is not a nuisance but a bonus in tracking the contours of the rectum walls and other topographical features which would be otherwise difficult to survey.A complete pelvic floor TVU may add no longer than 5-8 minutes to a routine gynecological examination, can be implemented by the general gynecologist and generates data that can be further studied by the appropriate specialist for a more insightful evaluation [2].

We have used real-time ultrasound and a linear array rectal probe to view the bladder base and urethra in women with urinary disorders, particularly incontinence. Early scans used a transabdominal approach, but it was found that the image of the bladder neck and urethra was obscured by the symphysis pubis.' A transrectal probe, initially developed to study the prostate,2 was found to be suitable for scanning the bladder and urethra, and preliminary reports have been published6-s We present our own experience here. METHODS AND RESULTSWe used a portable Aloka ultrasound scanner (SSD210DX) and matching 5-MHz linear array transrectal probe (Fig. 1). This scanner weighs only 8 kg. The scanner has electronic focusing, a maximum frame rate of 30 frame&, and pushbutton control calipers for linear measurement. The ultrasound screen is 14 cm across (diagonally), but the picture can be enlarged by connection to a 30-cm video monitor. The rectal probe has a n external diameter of 15 mm and a viewing window of 9 cm. Additional nonlinear measurements of area, circumference, and a drawing facility are available by using a Siel computer (ACV 4LS) with its dedicated software. The active part of the probe is covered with a condom, and all air is then sucked out to reduce the risk of artifacts produced by air bubbles. The patient is placed in the left lateral position. Lubricant jelly is applied to the probe, which is then inserted into the rec-
