mariloucModeratorHi DonnaT,
I’m sorry to hear about your recent diagnosis. I hope you can get more information on next treatment steps soon.
The following is an excerpt from our website page “Bladder Cancer Symptoms and Diagnosis“: “Depending on the facility and disease status, “Computed Tomography” (CT or CAT) radiological scan may be used. The CT Urogram examines the upper urinary tract (kidneys and ureters) in detail to look for possible reasons for blood in the urine or to detect other symptoms and conditions. A “contrast dye” is injected intravenously (by IV) to better see the internal structures being examined. A CT Urogram will help identify signs of spread to lymph nodes or other organs like the liver.”
Some other helpful pages are:
– Staging and Grading of Bladder Cancer Tumours
– Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer
If you have any questions, or need support, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I would be happy to pair you up with a Peer Support Volunteer or to connect you with a Support Group.
All the best,
- Marilou (marilouc@bladdercancercanada.org)
