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 ...

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 ...

A urine test was shown to decrease the need for invasive cystoscopies in patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. A urine-based test may decrease the number of invasive cystoscopies in ...

A streamlined urine DNA test more accurately detects primary bladder cancer, reducing the need for more invasive cystoscopy, reports The Journal of Molecular Diagnostics Lead investigator Sungwhan An, ...

One of the first signs of bladder cancer can be blood in the urine (hematuria). Investigators developed and analyzed the results of a streamlined and simplified DNA-based urine test to improve the ...

A new urine test could spare bladder cancer survivors from a painful follow-up procedure needed to ensure their cancer hasn't come back, researchers report. People who've gotten surgery for high-risk ...
