Prospective evaluation of a urinary biomarker panel to detect and predict recurrence of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer.

abstract：:Although immediate radical cystectomy remains the standard of care for invasive bladder cancer, a large body of international experience from single institutions and cooperative groups has accumulated, suggesting favorable results with bladder-sparing approaches in appropriately selected patients. Modern selective bla...

abstract：:This is the first reported use of low-angle X-ray scattering for the investigation of urinary calculi. Low-angle X-ray scattering (LAXS) measures the diffraction of a broad spectrum of X-rays at a single angle and uses a conventional diagnostic X-ray beam, and could thus be developed for use in vivo. A total of 45 cal...
