What does a bladder ultrasound show?
Ultrasonography of the urinary tract can detect a wide range of pathological conditions, including:
- Cysts, polyps, and papillary structures within organs
- Inflammatory processes, including infectious lesions of the mucous membrane
- Calculi of various origins, microliths, and salt crystals in the urinary reservoir cavity
- Various types of tumor processes of benign or malignant origin
- Pelvic muscle dystrophy leading to a change in the normal position of the organ (more often observed in women)
- Neurogenic dysfunction of the bladder due to a disorder of nervous regulation
- Anomalies of embryonic development of the pelvic organs
- Bulges or protrusions of the organ walls, predominantly occurring in men
- Congestion secretory fluid, often associated with pathological changes in the prostate gland.
During the procedure, the doctor conducts a detailed study of the organ's shape and topographic location, the thickness of the muscle layer, the vascular network, and nerve fibers in the area being examined, which ensures an accurate diagnosis of possible abnormalities.
Ultrasound is actively used to monitor the effectiveness of previously initiated therapy and assess the dynamics of changes in the patient's condition during treatment.
General information
Indications for Bladder Ultrasound
Specialists strongly emphasize the need for regular urinary tract ultrasound examinations at least every two to three years to promptly detect even the slightest deviations from physiological norms and prevent the development of serious illnesses. Constant ultrasound monitoring helps prevent undesirable consequences of disease progression, prevents the transition of the acute phase of the disease to the chronic stage, and significantly reduces the likelihood of a surgical solution to the problem.
Women are advised to undergo an urgent, unscheduled ultrasound examination of the bladder if alarming symptoms such as:
- Episodic urinary retention or frequent urination
- Detection of blood cells in the urine
- Signs of kidney disorders and problems with the urinary organs (pain in the lumbar region, the appearance of specific morning swelling of the face, severe fatigue)
- Suspected functional disorders of the ovaries (acute pain in the lower abdomen, irregular menstrual cycles, spontaneous Bleeding)
- Traumatic effects on the bladder
- Significant discrepancies between normal urine and blood laboratory test values
- Detected stones in the lumen of the urinary reservoir
Men are advised to seek immediate examination if they experience the following symptoms:
- Discomfort when urinating, a feeling of insufficient evacuation of bladder contents, which indicates the likely development of prostate inflammation
- Presence of red blood cells in the urine
- Difficulty passing urine, pain in the back and groin
- Traumatization of the bladder cavity itself due to the presence of stones in the organ
Ultrasound imaging of the urinary system is completely safe and does not pose any radiation threat to body tissues.
