Can an AI camera on a catheter spot bladder cancer better than standard scopes?
NCT ID NCT07095751
First seen Jul 22, 2026 · Last updated Jul 23, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This pilot study is testing whether an artificial intelligence-assisted catheter camera system, called Uro-Cam, can safely and accurately detect bladder cancer. Adults with blood in their urine, abnormal urine cytology, or a history of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer will undergo the AI-assisted exam followed by a standard flexible cystoscopy. The study will measure technical success, 30-day complications, and how well the AI system identifies cancer compared to biopsy results.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- AI-assisted Uro-Cam catheter assessment system
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this AI-assisted camera system could offer a more accurate and less invasive way to detect bladder cancer during routine exams.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small pilot study with only 60 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The device is still experimental and its accuracy compared to standard cystoscopy is not yet proven.
