Coloured urogram (X-ray) of the pelvis of a male patient aged 62, showing the dynamics of bladder control to test the health of the prostate gland (image 2 of 2). Here, after urination the rounded bladder (lower centre) has folded diverticula suggesting bladder control but it has not emptied, and the prostate gland (paler, seen beneath the bladder) reveals tumours (adenomas). An inflamed or diseased prostate gland can affect bladder control. (Image 1 shows the bladder before urination).
