Many studies have been initiated using the sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) technique to treat patients that suffer with urinary problems. [citation needed] When applying this procedure, proper patient screening is essential, because some disorders that affect the urinary tract (like bladder calculus or carcinoma in-situ) have to be treated differently.
Percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS), also referred to as posterior tibial nerve stimulation, is the least invasive form of neuromodulation used to treat overactive bladder (OAB) and the associated symptoms of urinary urgency, urinary frequency and urge incontinence.
The ACR White Paper on MR Safety has been rewritten and was released early in 2007 under the new title ACR Guidance Document for Safe MR Practices. In December 2007, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), a UK healthcare regulatory body, issued their Safety Guidelines for Magnetic Resonance Imaging Equipment in Clinical ...
The dispute centers on Medtronic's InterStim device, an implanted neurostuimulator used to treat patients with an overactive bladder and bowel-control conditions. On Thursday, Medtronic filed a ...
An MRI instead of a surgical procedure helped speed up the wait between diagnosis and treatment, UK research has found ... Bladder cancer is the 11th most common cancer diagnosed in the UK ...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to generate pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes inside the body. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields, magnetic field gradients, and radio waves to form images of the organs in the body.
Doctors are warning patients not to wear spandex clothing when coming in for a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedure. Fabrics that use spandex often have metallic threads that could react ...
Neurogenic bladder dysfunction, often called by the shortened term neurogenic bladder, refers to urinary bladder problems due to disease or injury of the central nervous system or peripheral nerves involved in the control of urination. [1] [2] There are multiple types of neurogenic bladder depending on the underlying cause and the symptoms.
