Abstract:
Seeing that the invasive measuring technique has many disadvantages, we have designed a noninvasive technical system for measuring isovolumetric bladder pressure by controlled inflation of a penile cuff. This system is easy-to-use and the measuring result provides quantitative information on isovolumetric bladder pressure during voiding. The doctor can discriminate obstruction from non-obstruction according to the data of measurement and flow rate.
