CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of bladder cancer.
CT Scan
- Abdomen and pelvis CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of bladder cancer. Findings on CT scan diagnostic of bladder cancer include:[1][2][3][4]
- Find a tumor and determine its size
- Check if cancer has spread to lymph nodes, the liver or other structures around the bladder
- To distinguish T3b tumors and T4 tumors
- Nodal involvement in the pelvis or retroperitoneum, visceral, pulmonary, or osseous metastasis
- Tumor involvement or obstruction of the upper urinary tract
