Core Tip Accurate urinary bladder volume (UBV) estimation is essential for clinical decision making but often requires time-consuming volumetric analysis. This study demonstrates that UBV can be reliably estimated on computed tomography using a single sagittal long-axis measurement. A simple linear formula derived from this measurement provides accuracy comparable to multidimensional methods while improving efficiency and reproducibility. This streamlined approach may standardize bladder volume assessment in routine imaging and serve as a practical reference standard for validating ultrasound based UBV estimation.
