ULTRASONIC CHARACTERIZATION OF URETERAL JETS IN HEALTHY PEOPLE

Abstract

The article presents the results of ultrasound examination of ureteral jets. The number of ureteral jets for 10 minutes on each side, the average frequency of jets per 1 minute, systolic velocity and the duration of the ureteral jets were determined. The results of the study were compared between young and middle-aged individuals, depending on gender and the degree of filling of the bladder within 150-250 ml and 250-350 ml. As a result of the study, it was found that in middle-aged men, the ureter jets velocity decreases as the volume of the bladder increases (more than 250 ml) compared with young people and middle-aged women.
