摘要：
The shape of the urine stream can be used to measure both the flow rate and orifice geometry. The measurement of the shape of the urine stream can be a useful diagnostic tool for medical practitioners since it provides a noninvasive method of measuring urine flow rate and urethral dilation. A novel diagnostic visual voiding device (VVD) measures Symptoms of Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction (LUTD) such as urinary incontinence. The VVD consists of a lightweight foldable booth with LED lights, microphone, video cameras on left side, top, face, and container that display stream height, width, angle, distance, face grimacing, container height and flow versus time. The VVD will improve the initial diagnosis of Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction (LUTD) and also improve LUTD by providing subsequent diagnosis after treatment. It enables the patient to video and audio record urinary voiding in privacy. The video and audio recording hardware and software enables the video and audio recording to be sent in electronic form to the urologist at a location other than where the VVD is located.
