Fig. 5From: The potential utility of non-invasive imaging to monitor restoration of bladder structure and function following subtotal cystectomy (STC)Linear regression analysis of cystometric parameters with MRI-determined bladder wall thickness. a At early timepoints (i.e., 2,4 weeks) after STC, the bladder capacity is negatively correlated with bladder wall thickness at that same timepoint. The pre-operative thickness of the bladder wall (baseline) is positively correlated with bladder compliance (b) and smooth muscle content (c) seen at early time points post-STC.
