Fluorescence Detection of Bladder Cancer

  • Chapter
Carcinoma of the Bladder

Part of the book series: Medical Radiology ((Med Radiol Radiat Oncol))

Abstract

Visual differentiation of normal tissue from transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) is relatively easy, but carcinoma in situ (CIS) or nonmalignant diseases, such as cystitis (bacterial, chemical, or due to radiotherapy), are often invisible to the naked eye. Therefore, biopsies have to be taken for determination of histopathology. Unfortunately, a biopsy represents only a small sample area, and the final pathology results are available only after several days. Hence there is a need for a more practical diagnostic technique, which would provide an in vivo classification of the tissue type in real time.
