Association between overactive bladder and pelvic organ mobility as evaluated by dynamic magnetic resonance imaging
Abstract Overactive bladder (OAB) is a prevalent condition, which negatively impacts patients’ quality of life. Pelvic organ prolapse (POP), also prevalent in women, has been recognized as an important etiology of female OAB, although the pathophysiological mechanisms remain controversial. In this s...
