Everyone needs to pay attention to this and do the corresponding work.

Bladder cancer screening tests mainly include:

1. Ultrasound examination: Ultrasound examination is convenient and easy to perform. However, if the diameter of the tumor is less than 0.5 cm, false negatives often occur, so its practical value for early diagnosis is limited.

2. CT examination: CT examination can determine the degree of tumor infiltration and whether lymph nodes have metastasized. It can clearly see the late-stage lesions, but it is not very practical for auxiliary diagnosis of bladder cancer.

3. Three-cup urine test: Once symptoms of hematuria appear, it often indicates that there are lesions such as inflammation, tuberculosis, stones, foreign bodies, tumors or urinary tract obstruction in the urinary tract. It is necessary to undergo examinations from simple to complex.

4. Cystoscopy: Cystoscopy can determine whether there is bladder cancer and the number, size, shape, and presence of a pedicle and base of the tumor, and can also perform random biopsies.

The occurrence of bladder cancer causes great discomfort and physical impact to patients. Therefore, we need to clearly understand the harm of the disease and pay attention to the troubles it causes. Only by conducting professional examinations and learning more about the disease can we cure the disease quickly and effectively, thereby restoring physical health and normal life.
