Development and evaluation of automated ultrasonographic detection of bladder diameter for estimation of bladder urine volume.

Bladder urine volume has been estimated using an ellipsoid method based on triaxial measurements of the bladder extrapolated from two-dimensional ultrasound images. This study aimed to automate this process and to determine the accuracy of the automated estimation method for normal and small amounts...
