A member asked:

Will an mri of the pelvis show if i have a urethral injury/stricture?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not first line test: Although an MRI might show some signs of a urethral injury or stricture, the best imaging study is a retrograde urethrogram. A retrograde urethrogram involves filling the urethra with contrast under fluoroscopy and looking for abnormalities.
