AB  - Urodynamics  (UDS)  is  an  interactive  study  of  the  lower  urinary  tract  (LUT)  that  evaluates  the  transport,  storage,  and  evacuation  of  urine.  UDS  is  composed  of  a  combination  of  tests  that  can  be  used  collectively  to  obtain  functional  information  about  the  LUT.  The  study  can  be  divided  up  into  two  main  phases:  the  storage  (or  filling)  phase  and  the  emptying  (or  voiding)  phase.  During  the  storage  phase,  cystometry  is  performed  and  includes  measurement  of  bladder  sensation,  contractions,  compliance,  and  capacity.  Other  tests,  such  as  abdominal  leak  point  pressure  (ALPP)  and  detrusor  leak  point  pressure  (DLPP),  can  also  be  performed  when  indicated.  The  emptying  phase  consists  of  pressure  flow  studies  and  can  give  valuable  information  about  voiding.
