Noninvasive Ultrasound Assessment of Detrusor Dysfunction

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of quantitative ultrasound bladder vibrometry (QUBV) as a noninvasive tool for detrusor overactivity assessment and for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) treatment selection. Participants in this study will have a QUBV ultrasound performed at the same time as a urodynamic study that had been ordered as part of their regular clinical care.
