The extent of the bladder cancer — how far it has spread — matters. Your care team needs to know if your cancer sits on or in the first lining of your bladder (non-muscle invasive), if it goes into ...

Bladder cancer continues to pose a significant clinical challenge, with accurate imaging and treatment evaluation remaining pivotal in guiding patient management. Recent advances in imaging techniques ...

In patients with suspected muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), definitive treatment can be expedited by adding multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) to flexible cystoscopic biopsy at ...

The Decipher Bladder test identifies aggressive bladder cancer, aiding in treatment decisions beyond initial clinical staging. Non-luminal tumors in NMIBC show higher upstaging rates to MIBC and ...

Rethinking the Path to Bladder Cancer Staging: Can Magnetic Resonance Imaging Speed Up Time to Receipt of Therapy in Patients With Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer? The following represents disclosure ...

The BladderPath study showed mpMRI reduced TTCT by 45 days for MIBC patients, enhancing treatment efficiency without harming non-MIBC patients. Conducted in 17 UK hospitals, the study involved 143 ...

Overall survival appears no worse for patients with organ-confined limited-stage small cell bladder cancer receiving multimodal organ-preserving treatment. For patients with limited-stage small-cell ...
