A simple urine test can more than halve the number of cystoscopies necessary to follow up high-risk bladder cancer patients, new research has found. Cystoscopies involve inserting a flexible probe ...
Urologists also treat conditions that affect male reproductive organs. The reproductive and urinary systems work closely together in men. Urologists often treat conditions that affect both systems.
A promising molecular diagnostic tool for detecting primary bladder cancer in patients who notice blood in their urine may speed up diagnosis and reduce the need for potentially unnecessary ...
In a trial, Xpert® Bladder Cancer Monitor, a non-invasive urinary biomarker test, appeared suitable for guiding cystoscopy during monitoring of patients with NMIBC. Alternating between cystoscopy and ...
Early detection of bladder cancer can improve clinical outcomes and survival rates, similar to other cancers. One current area of research involves looking at cell mutations in areas where cancer may ...
