- "The rate of detection of vesicourethral leakage determined with MDCT cystography was 80.4% (37 of 46 cases), and that determined with conventional cystography was 54.3% (25 of 46 cases)."
MDCT Cystography for Detection of vesicourethral Leak After Prostatectomy
Lee HJ et al.
AJR 2008; 191:1847-1851 - "MDCT cystography can be used for evaluation of leaks at the anastomotic site after prostatectomy and may have better leak detection rate than conventional cystography."
MDCT Cystography for Detection of vesicourethral Leak After Prostatectomy
Lee HJ et al.
AJR 2008; 191:1847-1851 - "In conclusion, we recommend the use of CT cystography in the evaluation of patients with suspected bladder rupture. Additional sagittal and coronal images from MPR may be highly informative for identification of site of bladder rupture, particularly in intraperitoneal rupture when the site of perforation is at the bladder dome, which may be difficult to detect on axial images."
CT Cystography with Multiplanar Reformation for Suspected Bladder Rupture: Experience in 234 Cases
Chan DPN et al
AJR 2006; 187:1298-1302 - "Extraperitoneal bladder rupture is more common, with an 89-90% frequency rate, whereas intraperitoneal bladder rupture occurs in 15-20% of patients. Combined rupture occurs in as many as 12%."
