Urodynamics: There bladder studies called urodynamics or cystometrics that can be done to help diagnose different types of bladder / urine incontinence. Some are very basic and done in the dr office; some are computerized and high tech. These studies help clarify the types of incontinence which helps determine the best treatment.

Urodynamics: These are specific tests available which your doctor can perform to determine exactly what type of incontinence (involuntary leakage of urine) you are experiencing. This is important because some types of leakage are treated with surgery, others with medication, and still others may require neuromodulation therapy (also known as interstim). For women, gynecologists and urologists have expertise.
