[Pharmacoradiology of the urinary bladder (author's transl)]. 1979

C Alberti

A complete urodynamic evaluation is possible only on the basis of multichannel recordings (pressure gradients, flow rate and outflow resistance, electromiography) and X-ray. The pharmacoradiology of the urinary bladder (experimental or therapeutic employment of cholinergic and adrenergic drugs) requires the knowledge of urodynamic parameters and neurophysiology of the micturition.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010277	Parasympathomimetics	Drugs that mimic the effects of parasympathetic nervous system activity. Included here are drugs that directly stimulate muscarinic receptors and drugs that potentiate cholinergic activity, usually by slowing the breakdown of acetylcholine (CHOLINESTERASE INHIBITORS). Drugs that stimulate both sympathetic and parasympathetic postganglionic neurons (GANGLIONIC STIMULANTS) are not included here.

D001743	Urinary Bladder	A musculomembranous sac along the URINARY TRACT. URINE flows from the KIDNEYS into the bladder via the ureters (URETER), and is held there until URINATION.

D013566	Sympathomimetics	Drugs that mimic the effects of stimulating postganglionic adrenergic sympathetic nerves. Included here are drugs that directly stimulate adrenergic receptors and drugs that act indirectly by provoking the release of adrenergic transmitters.
