First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at women aged 50 and older who have visible blood in their urine along with a bladder infection. Researchers want to find out if these women really need to undergo invasive tests like cystoscopy and CT scans to check for bladder or kidney cancer. By following 300 women for one year, the goal is to identify who can safely avoid these procedures without missing a cancer diagnosis.
