DETECTION OF URETHRAL DIVERTICULA IN WOMEN: COMPARISON OF A HIGH RESOLUTION FAST SPIN ECHO TECHNIQUE WITH DOUBLE BALLOON URETHROGRAPHY

Abstract

MRI is a valuable noninvasive technique for determining the presence of urethral diverticula as well as detecting other abnormalities. In our study MRI had a higher sensitivity for detecting diverticula and a much higher negative predictive rate.
