Correlation Between Quadratus Lumborum , Pelvic Floor Muscles and Diaphragm in Patients With Urinary Incontinence

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The purpose of this study is to investigate Correlation between quadratus lumborum , pelvic floor muscles and diaphragm in patients with urinary incontinence

Detailed Description
-----------------
50 patients were distributed randomly into two groups. The first group measured ultrasound imaging for quadratus lumborum , pelvic floor muscles and diaphragm urinary incontinence female The second group measured ultrasound imaging for quadratus lumborum , pelvic floor muscles and diaphragm urinary incontinence female normal females. Patients examined with medical ultrasound imaging .
