Das et al. have performed strain analysis of a specific female pelvic floor muscle called the puborectalis muscle from 3D ultrasound volumes, before and after pessary treatment. The effect of pessary treatment has been shown to be quantifiable through the strain ratio, which corresponded with the patient-reported outcome measures from these women.
