Ultrasound test to check bladder muscle problems in adults
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a noninvasive ultrasound approach to assess bladder muscle function during routine bladder testing. You may be offered ultrasound measurements while you already need standard care, aiming to improve how bladder problems are evaluated.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old and already scheduled for a bladder test called UDS for your care
- If you are in the prostate group: you are over 45 and scheduled for selective photovaporization of the prostate
- You do not have a BMI over 35
- You do not have known nerve or brain conditions that affect bladder control (like spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s, or stroke)
- You have not had prior pelvic radiation, and you have not had major pelvic surgery for certain cancers (like uterine or colorectal cancer)
- You have not had prior bladder surgery (including prostate resection), and you are not pregnant or breastfeeding

This study checks how your bladder “sensation” works using bladder testing (including urodynamic testing) to better understand MS-related bladder problems. It may help researchers match bladder symptoms to what’s happening inside the bladder.
This study uses a new device to measure your bladder function over a full day, helping doctors better understand urinary symptoms. You might be eligible if you need a standard bladder test and do not have certain conditions like frequent infections or nerve-related bladder problems.
This study looks at how the bladder and urethra work during urodynamic testing in people who need that test. It uses ultrasound and pressure measurements to understand bladder function better.
This study checks whether where you are positioned during a bladder test (urodynamic assessment) changes how bladder overactivity is diagnosed. It may help improve how doctors confirm the cause of overactive bladder symptoms in people with multiple sclerosis or Parkinson’s disease.
This trial studies a special ultrasound scan with contrast dye to see whether bladder cancer has grown into the muscle layer. It may help doctors plan the best treatment before surgery.
This study collects normal bladder pressure data from healthy adults using a new device. It helps doctors understand what healthy bladder function looks like, which may improve future care.
