Abstract
- This study was designed to determine the effectiveness of transrectal ultrasonography compared with chain cystourethrography in stress urinary incontinence. The advantages of transrectal ultrasonography are that it is a simple. comfortable, noninvasive and quick out patient procedure. The diagnostic criteria of stress urinary incontinence are more than 146.6` in posterior urethrovesical angle, more than 1.02cm in bladder neck descent and more than 0.14cm in bladder neck opening. In conclusion, transrectal ultrasonography is a highly sensitive and specific method for the diagnosis of stress urinary incontinence.
