Urinary tract ultrasound

Ultrasound of the urinary tract involves the use of an ultrasound probe to image parts of the urinary tract.

Urination

Urination is the release of urine from the bladder to the outside of the body.

See Bladder and Urination

Urodynamic testing

Urodynamic testing or urodynamics is a study that assesses how the bladder and urethra are performing their job of storing and releasing urine.

See Bladder and Urodynamic testing

Urogenital sinus

The urogenital sinus is a body part of a human or other placental only present in the development of the urinary and reproductive organs.

Urorectal septum

The urorectal septum is an invagination of the cloaca.

Uterine artery

The uterine artery is an artery that supplies blood to the uterus in females.

See Bladder and Uterine artery

Uterus

The uterus (from Latin uterus,: uteri) or womb is the organ in the reproductive system of most female mammals, including humans, that accommodates the embryonic and fetal development of one or more embryos until birth. Bladder and uterus are organs (anatomy) and pelvis.

See Bladder and Uterus

Vagina

In mammals and other animals, the vagina (vaginas or vaginae) is the elastic, muscular reproductive organ of the female genital tract.

See Bladder and Vagina

Vaginal artery

The vaginal artery is an artery in females that supplies blood to the vagina and the base of the bladder.

See Bladder and Vaginal artery

Vertebrate

Vertebrates are deuterostomal animals with bony or cartilaginous axial endoskeleton — known as the vertebral column, spine or backbone — around and along the spinal cord, including all fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals.

Vesical arteries

Vesical arteries are variable in number.

See Bladder and Vesical arteries

Vesical nervous plexus

The vesical nervous plexus arises from the forepart of the pelvic plexus.

See Bladder and Vesical nervous plexus

Vesical veins

The vesical veins are veins in the pelvis that drain blood from the urinary bladder.

See Bladder and Vesical veins

Vesical venous plexus

The vesical venous plexus is a venous plexus situated at the fundus of the urinary bladder.

See Bladder and Vesical venous plexus

Vesicoureteral reflux

Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), also known as vesicoureteric reflux, is a condition in which urine flows retrograde, or backward, from the bladder into one or both ureters and then to the renal calyx or kidneys.

See Bladder and Vesicoureteral reflux

Vesicouterine pouch

In human female anatomy, the vesicouterine pouch, also uterovesicle pouch, is a fold of peritoneum over the uterus and the bladder.

See Bladder and Vesicouterine pouch

White blood cell

White blood cells (scientific name leukocytes), also called immune cells or immunocytes, are cells of the immune system that are involved in protecting the body against both infectious disease and foreign invaders.
