MRI-fusion sonography for the evaluation of Trans Vaginal Colposuspension treatment success

Purpose: Trans Vaginal Colposuspension (TVC) is a novel, minimally invasive technique for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI). To reconstruct the pubourethral or pubovesicular ligaments we use an MRI visible suturable mini sling (SlimSling) which allows for the preservation of normal anatomy without any mesh material under the urethra. To follow up the success of this procedure we use MRI fusion sonography along with a clinical evaluation of outcomes. By using MRI fusion sonography we are able to see the fixation points and the mesh position angle which in not possible with traditional imaging. Th…
