Aims To present a narrated video designed to demonstrate the steps involved in the procedure of videourodynamics. Methods The technique shown and described in this teaching video is that performed in the urogynaecology Department at King's College Hospital, London. The equipment utilizes fluid filled lines and external pressure transducers which provide accurate and consistent results. Results The advantage of videocystourolodraphy is that as well as incorporating screening fluoroscopy with a cystometric trace, simultaneous assessment of lower urinary tract anatomy and morphology and function is possible. Conclusion Videourodynamics or videocystourogrpahy is a diagnostic tool that incorporates urodynamics with imaging of the lower urinary tract which occurs simultaneously. Thus both functional anatomy and physiology can be assessed.
