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 ...

One of the first signs of bladder cancer can be blood in the urine (hematuria). Investigators developed and analyzed the results of a streamlined and simplified DNA-based urine test to improve the ...

Researchers have developed a test for urine, gathered during a routine procedure, to detect DNA mutations identified with urothelial cancers. Researchers at The Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center have ...

Two new urine tests appear to accurately detect bladder cancer, determine its severity and detect its recurrence, investigators report. The tests look at activity and levels of V1, a gene variant ...

A recent breakthrough study highlights how a simple at-home urine test could accurately detect prostate cancer. Researchers from Vanderbilt University and the University of Michigan suggest this ...

A urine test was shown to decrease the need for invasive cystoscopies in patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. A urine-based test may decrease the number of invasive cystoscopies in ...

Doctors use a combination of tests, including urinalysis, cystoscopy, urine culture, and bladder wall biopsy to diagnose interstitial cystitis. For males, they may also examine prostate secretions.

An experimental urine test can detect aggressive prostate cancers in men on active surveillance, potentially sparing them from repeated biopsies, researchers reported on Friday. The MPS2-AS test is ...

A streamlined urine DNA test more accurately detects primary bladder cancer, reducing the need for more invasive cystoscopy, reports The Journal of Molecular Diagnostics Lead investigator Sungwhan An, ...
