Special issue on Pelvic Floor Health

The pelvic floor makes up a significant piece of our body’s core, the essence of your very being. The foundation for all movement, balance, stability and flexibility begins in the pelvis. And in times of change, such as during pregnancy, childbirth, perimenopause and menopause, we can support our bodies — literally and figuratively — by creating strength in our cores.

You might not know that seven out of ten women have disorders of the pelvic floor. It’s not surprising, given that the pelvic floor supports the bones in the spine; structures the abdominal cavity — muscles and organs included; controls the passage of urine and stool; facilitates the childbirth process; and contributes to a woman’s sexual pleasure and ability to reach orgasm. What is surprising for many of us, however, is that problems with the above are avoidable.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring The pelvic floor. This special issue publishes original papers including but not limited to the following fields:

• Diagnostic Imaging MRI, Ultrasound
• Obstetric and Pediatric Sonography

• 3D/4D ultrasound
