Please note that holding urine during color ultrasound is not for a competition to see who can hold it longer, but to fill the bladder ! Just like an inflated balloon, a full bladder can effectively push away the intestines blocking the corresponding organs, preventing intestinal gas from affecting the inspection process, allowing ultrasound to better reach the area that needs to be inspected and display a relatively clear image . But the more urine is not necessarily better, because too much urine may affect the test results ! When receiving color Doppler ultrasound examination, the degree of urine retention is the key ! The ideal state is: When you have a clear urge to urinate, your lower abdomen will bulge slightly. At this time, you will not feel any discomfort if you gently press your lower abdomen .
