Although a high prevalence of pelvic floor disorders (PFD) in this population is documented, there is a lack of consensus regarding physical therapy approaches.
Methods: Cross-sectional observational study with 56 physiotherapists who answered a questionnaire.

This study aimed to elucidate the physical mechanisms underlying this phenomenon by analyzing the ex vivo filling process in rat from a fully voided state to complete distension, without preconditioning, using three complementary imaging modalities. High-resolution micro-CT at 10.
