Understanding of the visco-elastic and contractile properties of pelvic floor muscles and their characteristics in deforming soft tissues are important factors in predicting their functionality. Ultrasound imaging provides a noninvasive way to visualize the temporal sequence of the displacement and deformation of abdominal structures and this paper provides a conceptual framework for dynamic bio-imaging analysis. The objective of this study is thus to measure the effect of displacement and deformation and strain generated by the reflex activation pelvic floor muscles. Computation of the deformation analysis is presented using the temporal and spatial components of urethral profile reflecting the deformation and strain generated by voluntary and reflex activity. |
