Other Imaging Findings
- Cystoscopy may be helpful in the diagnosis of bladder cancer. Findings diagnostic of bladder cancer include:[1][2][3]
- Multiple bladder biopsy specimens from various locations
- Gross extravesical extension, invasion of adjacent organs, or pelvic sidewall involvement
- Detects more tumors (both papillary and CIS) with fluorescence cystoscopy than white-light cystoscopy
