March 10 (UPI) --Identifying genetic mutations in urine could help detect bladder cancer years before symptoms arise, a new study presented Friday at the European Association of Urology annual ...

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 ...

Researchers from the University of Birmingham's Bladder Cancer Research Center have used a new method to detect chemical changes in the DNA in an individual's urine sample; epigenetic changes, called ...

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 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 ...

At-home drug tests are urine or saliva tests that can identify if illegal or prescriptions drugs are present in your body. These tests are an alternative to going in person to a laboratory or other ...

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 ...
