An estimated 1 billion people across the globe suffer from lower urinary tract symptoms. Researchers at VIB and KU Leuven now developed videocystometry, a new combined technique that allows to monitor the functioning of the urinary tract in rodents in unprecedented detail. The new imaging technique promises to accelerate the search for causes and treatments of lower urinary tract dysfunction.
