A urinary DNA methylation test demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity for detecting high-grade or invasive bladder cancer, outperforming both nuclear matrix protein 22 (NMP22) and urine ...

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 ...

A simple urine test for genetic mutations in urine-derived DNA can predict urothelial cancer up to 12 years before patients develop symptoms, an international team of researchers claims. The test, if ...

Recognizing the sight of blood in urine, the most common first sign of bladder cancer, is often the impetus that leads people ...

A high percentage of bladder cancers can be cured if they are found early. Once cancer spreads outside the bladder, it is much harder to treat. That’s why it’s important to first bring up any ...

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 ...
