Examination of urinary tract: Urodynamic testing: Other
The functioning of your bladder has been tested.
The bladder sits low down in the abdomen and collects the urine. The urine is produced in the two kidneys. The urine flows from the kidneys into the bladder via the ureters. When you pass water, the urine flows from the bladder via the urethra and out.
Various measurements can be taken to study the functioning of the bladder. The test can be used to identify whether the bladder is able to store, hold and excrete the urine.
