Editing Functional: Urinary Incontinence (section)

=== Imaging ===
* Standard imaging studies are not necessary in the initial evaluation of uncomplicated incontinence.
** Upper and lower urinary tract imaging in patients in whom renal damage or pelvic pathologic conditions are suspected should be performed.
* Voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG)
** Optional in patients with recurrent UTIs, but can be helpful in the diagnosis of a urethral diverticulum or VUR.
* MRI
** Has been proposed as an ideal method by which to evaluate the anatomy of the bladder neck and urethra with good correlation with functional studies.
** Has also been advocated for evaluation of pelvic floor relaxation and pelvic organ prolapse.
