Figure 2

Scatterplot amplitudes of deoxy-hemoglobin (HHb), oxy-hemoglobin (O2Hb), and total hemoglobin (Hbsum) based on presence or absence of obstruction according to standard urodynamic diagnosis. Despite the overlapping, NIRS parameters were significantly higher in obstructed patients compared to unobstructed patients.
