Cystoscopy and TURBT mean looking inside the bladder with a camera and shaving off tumours through the urethra. Blue-light dyes make flat tumours easier to see.
Transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT) is both diagnosis and treatment for NMIBC; re-resection for T1 disease; en-bloc resection is emerging. Blue-light cystoscopy with hexaminolevulinate improves detection of CIS and reduces recurrence. Urine biomarkers (Cxbladder, UroVysion, Bladder EpiCheck) aim to reduce surveillance cystoscopy frequency.
The bladder is visualised endoscopically with white or fluorescence light, and tumours are resected down to muscle with electrosurgery or laser.
A urine test that can rule out bladder cancer in people with blood in their urine, so fewer need a camera examination of the bladder.
A urine test that looks for chromosome changes in shed bladder cells, approved for people with blood in the urine and for follow-up after bladder cancer.
