During 2008-2010 the group intends to focus on the fields of LUTD with BOO (bladder outlet obstruction), neurourology/ spinal cord lesions and CPPS/ IC (chronic pelvic pain/ interstitial cystitis. Our aim is to organize and promote educational activities within the Nordic countries, and to facilitate  research communication and Nordic research cooperation in these fields.

An educational course on the theme “Best practice in LUTD” took place at the NUF Congress in Reykjavik 2009. A Nordic clinical course on advanced urodynamics will be held in Oslo in February 2010 (see separate announcement on this website).

Please feel free to contact members of the group with any queries, ideas, suggestions you may have on acitivities within our field! Looking forward to hearing from you!
