The researcher from the University of Murcia (UMU) Juan de Dios Berná Mestre describes a new technique for the diagnosis of anomalies in the male urethra, whose most common pathology is stricture or stenosis, which occurs for multiple causes: prostatic hypertrophy, trauma , infection, previous surgery, etc.
The article on the new technique applied to urethral ultrasound was published in the journal ‘European Radiology’ and describes a world-leading methodology that will allow the traditional test to be replaced, since it is less bothersome for the patient and has greater effectiveness. “We are very satisfied because the technique has been applied for years in various hospitals, both nationally and internationally,” says the researcher.
