Imaging Studies VI: Voiding Cystourethrography and Cystography

Voiding Cystourethrography (VCUG) and Cystography are specialized radiographic procedures used to examine the structure and function of the bladder and urethra.Voiding Cystourethrography (VCUG)A Voiding Cystourethrogram (VCUG) is a diagnostic imaging procedure that assesses the anatomy and function of the lower urinary tract. It focuses on the bladder, bladder neck, and urethra, helping detect abnormalities such as vesicoureteral reflux (VUR)—the backward or reverse flow of urine into the...

Urinary Tract Calculi III: Medical Management

The diagnosis of renal calculi involves several imaging techniques, including non-contrast CT scans and ultrasound. These methods help visualize kidney stones, assess their size and location, and detect possible obstructions. Additionally, Measuring urine pH is useful for diagnosing specific stone types, such as struvite (alkaline pH) and uric acid stones (acidic pH). Cystine stones are primarily linked to cystinuria, a genetic condition. A urinalysis helps detect blood in the urine (hematuria)...

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Andrology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a prevalent condition affecting aging men.
  • Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are commonly associated with BPH, impacting quality of life.
  • Understanding diagnostic and management patterns is crucial for optimizing patient care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the prevalence of BPH and associated LUTS in Canadian urology outpatient practice.
  • To analyze diagnostic patterns and management strategies employed by Canadian urologists.
  • To assess adherence to established Canadian BPH guidelines.

Main Methods:

  • A prospective audit involving representative urologists across Canada.
  • Data collection over a 2-week period using International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) questionnaires and chart reviews.
  • Inclusion of patient demographics, investigations, and treatments for BPH.

Main Results:

  • BPH was diagnosed in 19.6% of male patients (n=849) in outpatient urology practice.
  • Mean age of BPH patients was 69.5 years, with a mean IPSS score of 12.3.
  • Diagnostic evaluations and treatment choices generally followed Canadian BPH guidelines and evidence-based algorithms.

Conclusions:

  • BPH is a common condition managed in Canadian urology outpatient settings.
  • Canadian urologists demonstrate adherence to national guidelines for BPH management.
  • Current practices align with recent scientific literature, suggesting effective BPH care.
