阴道触觉成像仪 (VTI) 记录在施加的组织变形和盆底肌肉收缩期间阴道壁的压力模式。本研究的目的是验证对女性盆底状况敏感的触觉成像和肌肉收缩参数（标记）。通过阴道触觉成像探针对 22 名正常和脱垂状况的女性进行了检查。我们确定了 9 个对脱垂情况敏感的参数（单向方差分析 p < 0.05 和/或 t 检验 p < 0.05，相关因子 r 从 -0.73 到 -0.56）。参数列表包括确定位置的肌肉收缩期间的压力、压力梯度和动态压力响应。这些参数可用于女性盆底状况的生物力学表征，以支持盆底脱垂的有效治疗。
The Vaginal Tactile Imager (VTI) records pressure patterns from vaginal walls under an applied tissue deformation and during pelvic floor muscle contractions. The objective of this study is to validate tactile imaging and muscle contraction parameters (markers) sensitive to the female pelvic floor conditions. Twenty-two women with normal and prolapse conditions were examined by a vaginal tactile imaging probe. We identified 9 parameters which were sensitive to prolapse conditions (p < 0.05 for one-way ANOVA and/or p < 0.05 for t-test with correlation factor r from −0.73 to −0.56). The list of parameters includes pressure, pressure gradient and dynamic pressure response during muscle contraction at identified locations. These parameters may be used for biomechanical characterization of female pelvic floor conditions to support an effective management of pelvic floor prolapse.
