The efficiency of MBW. (A) Photographs viewed from the tip or each side of the catheters used in this study. Red dotted line shows the outline of each hole. (B) Total relative area of the holes in each catheter. The area of one of the holes in FC was set to 1. (C) The schematic image of how to evaluate MBW. (D,E) Wasted fluid’s volume and decreased clot’s volume of soft tofu. (F,G) Wasted fluid’s volume and decreased clot’s volume of hard tofu. The decreased volume of PBC after the procedure mimicking MBW was done by 11 urologists.
