Zusammenfassung

Sonographische Verfahren haben die radiologischen Techniken zur Beurteilung der Blasenhalsmobilität weitgehend abgelöst. Die Reproduzierbarkeit der sonographischen Technik konnte in mehreren Studien belegt werden. Die Sonographie ist außerdem zu Beurteilung des Blasenhalses (Trichterbildung) und der Urethra (Divertikel) und des paraurethralen Gewebes (Vaginalzysten, Myome etc.) geeignet. Limitierungen ergeben sich bei Prolaps, weil das prolabierende Gewebe des Schallkopf verdrängt. Vorteilhaft ist die Vermeidung von Röntgenstrahlung und von einer Katherisierung.

Abstract

Radiologic procedures such as lateral cystography have been substituted by ultrasound in urogynecology. The techniques are standardized and reproducible. Ultrasound is also useful for evaluating the bladder neck (funneling), the urethra (diverticula) and the paraurethral tissues (vaginal cysts, vaginal fibroids). The technique is limited in patients with genital prolapse beyond the hymenal ring. Advantages include the avoidance of x-rays and catherization.
