Abstract
Translabial ultrasonography (TLUS) is a non-invasive imaging modality that provides detailed evaluation of the pelvic floor, making it an essential diagnostic tool in patients with urogenital prolapse (UGP). This technique allows real-time visualization of the pelvic floor structures, including the levator ani, urethra, bladder, and rectum, to assess anatomical abnormalities, muscle defects, and organ descent. TLUS offers a safer, cost-effective alternative to other imaging methods, contributing to better understanding and management of UGP. This study focuses on the application of TLUS in evaluating pelvic floor integrity in patients with urogenital prolapse.
