Abstract
Bladder function monitoring methods, apparatuses, media and signals are disclosed. A method includes receiving signals from an electromagnetic radiation detector, the signals representing electromagnetic radiation detected from the bladder during irradiance of the bladder with electromagnetic radiation, and further includes storing data indicative of bladder function, in response to the signals. The received signals may represent near infrared (NIR) detected from the bladder during NIR irradiance of the bladder.
