AbstractAn ultrasonic urine sensor has been developed for measuring urine accumulation in the human bladder. Observations have been made on the bladder expansion process under gradual accumulation of urine by using a magnetic resonance imager. After a clinical test to evaluate the principle of measurement, the sensor has been commercialized. In its present form, the sensor can be used by medical specialists to assess the bladder function, including for older patients.Keywords: urine incontinence; technological aid; ultrasonic sensor
