How is Cancer Diagnosed in Patients with Painful Urination?
If cancer is suspected as the cause of painful urination, a variety of diagnostic tests may be employed, such as:
Urine tests: To check for blood, infection, or cancer cells. Cystoscopy: A procedure that uses a scope to view the inside of the bladder and urethra. Imaging tests: Such as ultrasound, CT scans, or MRI to visualize the urinary tract. Biopsy: Taking a small tissue sample for laboratory analysis to confirm the presence of cancer cells.
