What is Bladder Volume?

Bladder volume refers to the amount of fluid or urine that the urinary bladder can hold. The bladder is a hollow organ that stores urine produced by the kidneys before it is excreted from the body. Its volume can vary depending on several factors, including hydration levels and time since the last urination. On average, a healthy adult bladder can hold up to 500 milliliters of urine comfortably.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the Bladder Volume (BV):

\[ BV = \frac{\pi}{6} \times 8 \times 6 \times 5 \approx 125.66 \text{ cm³} \]

The Bladder Volume (BV) is approximately 125.66 cm³.
