Could pelvic floor sonography be a standalone method for excluding genuine stress urinary incontinence in women?

Objectives: Determine whether introital pelvic floor sonography with transvaginal probe (PFS-TV) can be an independent method in the diagnosis of genuine stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and to create a ultrasonographic diagnostic model to objectify diagnostic process.

Material And Methods: The study involved 315 patients with a history of urinary incontinence problems. Based on the clinical examination and urodynamic examination, the final diagnosis was made.

Birth weight prediction by Lee formula based on fractional thigh volume in term pregnancies - is it helpful?

Introduction: Ultrasonographic estimation of fetal weight (EFW) is a standard obstetrical procedure in daily clinical practice. Formulas for calculating EFW most commonly are a combination of two-dimensional measurements. A relatively new approach is the use of three-dimensional measurements such as fractional thigh volume (TVol) incorporated into specific regression equations.

[Accuracy of weight prediction of full term newborns in ultrasonography].

Objectives: The estimation of prognostic value of ultrasonography in fetal weight assessment.

Design: Assessment of practical value of ultrasonography in full term newborns.

Material And Methods: We have retrospectively analyzed the outcomes of 611 ultrasonographic studies.
