Figure 1.
Comparison of CT-VCUG and cystourethroscopy showing two ostia.
Forty-nine year old female presented with recurrent cystitis. The axial image of CT-VCUG showed the diverticular ostia (a) at 5 (black arrow) and (b) 7 o’clock (white arrow) direction. (c) Cystourethroscopy of the same patient revealed an opening under direct vision at the location as predicted by CT-VCUG.

Figure 2.
Comparison of CT-VCUG and MRI in a 42 year-old female.
(a) The axial image of CT-VCUG of voiding phase showed a diverticulum partially filled with contrast media. (b) The axial image of T2 weighted MRI demonstrated the overall shape and complexity of the urethral diverticulum. (c) Coronal image of CT-VCUG revealed the ostium clearly. (d) Coronal image of T2 weighted MRI revealed suspicious ostium, but not as clearly as in CT-VCUG.
