Sonography was used to evaluate in vivo the length of the submucosal segment of the intravesical ureter in 35 normal infants, children and adults. Age varied between 3 and 30 years. Sonographic measurements were plotted against, age, height and weight. Analysis of the statistical data shows an almost linear growth profile in this age group. The dimensions obtained in vivo by ultrasound technique are comparable to the published dimensions obtained in vivo by endoscopic calibration or in vitro on fresh specimens. Although promising, ultrasound of the vesico-ureteral junction is because of technical limitations not yet applicable in neonates and infants in which measurement of the submucosal tunnel could be of clinical importance.
超声检查用于评估35名正常婴儿、儿童和成人膀胱内输尿管黏膜下段的体内长度。年龄范围在3至30岁之间。将超声测量结果与年龄、身高和体重进行对比绘制。统计数据分析显示该年龄组呈现几乎线性的生长曲线。通过超声技术在体内获得的尺寸与通过内镜校准在体内或在新鲜标本上体外获得的已发表尺寸相当。尽管前景良好，但由于技术限制，膀胱输尿管连接处的超声检查目前尚不适用于新生儿和婴儿，而在这些新生儿和婴儿中，黏膜下隧道的测量可能具有临床重要性。
