You’d think you’d look for signs of bladder cancer in urine, wouldn’t you? Sadly, it’s easier said than done, so there’s normally a need for uncomfortable and invasive cystoscopy exams, with a camera inserted into your urethra.

The test uses highly sensitive liquid biopsy technology alongside biomarkers developed by researchers at the university’s Bladder Cancer Research Centre.
