Urine-DNA Biomarkers in Detecting Bladder Cancer

DNA biomarkers in urine are important diagnostic and prognostic indicators for bladder cancer. Many genetic alterations have been identified in the urinary DNA. However, not all bladder tumors harbor mutations in the most commonly altered oncogenes. Thus, to reach satisfactory sensitivity and specificity a new diagnostic test should include multiple biomarkers. The investigators will conduct a prospective evaluation of a panel of mutations in urine-DNA test for the detection of urothelial bladder carcinoma in patients with gross hematuria for cystoscope.
