Influence of body position on dynamics of the pelvic floor measured with transperineal ultrasound imaging in men.

TPUS can be used to visualize three pelvic landmarks in men with cancerous prostates. Puborectalis is shorter at rest in standing than sitting, and elevation of the mid-urethra and the anorectal junction is more in standing than sitting. Together these findings indicate that feedback for pelvic floor muscle training is possible in both positions, but the position needs to be standardized for a comparative assessment.
