Study Summary

Urge urinary incontinence (UUI) is a common problem in older people which vastly reduces quality of life, yet the cause and mechanism of disease are not well understood. This study will characterize brain control of the bladder in young and old continent individuals and age-matched incontinent counterparts. This will expand the investigators current knowledge of how the brain controls the bladder, how that control changes with age and disease, and suggest new targets to guide development of better treatment.

Primary Outcome

BOLD signal contrast - voxel-wise subtraction of normalized brain activity signal measure (BOLD response) during bladder fluid withdrawal from that during bladder infusion in the a priori defined mPFC region. Since BOLD signal represents the normalized contrast in fMRI signal between two states as a proxy for cerebral blood flow, it does not have a unit.
