This succinct yet comprehensive book describes current and emerging concepts in risk stratification, detection, and staging of bladder cancer. Divided into two distinct sections, the first section focuses on contemporary and novel imaging modalities in bladder cancer staging. The second section illuminates advanced optical techniques and tumor markers for bladder cancer detection. The volume also addresses such topics as novel immuno-positron emission tomography radiotracers, imaging modalities for monitoring of tumor response, and non-invasive urine biomarkers such as current and emerging molecular markers for bladder cancer screening, early diagnosis, and surveillance.
Comprehensive Diagnostic Approach to Bladder Cancer: Molecular Imaging and Biomarkers is written by experts in the field and provides a valuable resource for urologists, oncologists, urologic oncologists, radiation oncologists, allied health professionals, residents, and fellows who treat and manage bladder cancer.
