Brain Areas Involved in Bladder Filling and Contraction

Overactive Bladder syndrome (OAB) is a medical condition with symptoms of urgency, with or without incontinence, usually with frequency and nocturia, with no proven infection or obvious pathology 1. This study will explore the relationship between OAB, obstruction and the micro contractions as well as the brain areas involved in both normal desire to void and urgency, gaining a better understanding of the bladder pathophysiology and in the future allowing better strategy of treatment options for patients suffering from OAB.
