Bladder Volume Ultrasound (Post-Void Residual)

Wyoming rates for HCPCS 51798

This quick ultrasound scan measures how much urine remains in the bladder after urination, or measures overall bladder capacity, without producing a full diagnostic image. It's a simple, non-invasive way to check whether the bladder is emptying completely, which can be affected by conditions like an enlarged prostate, nerve problems, or bladder muscle weakness. The scan is performed with a handheld device placed on the lower abdomen.
