Virtual CT cystoscopy: color mapping of bladder wall thickness.
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES To improve the conspicuity of bladder tumors in a virtual environment, we developed an algorithm for color mapping the thickness of the bladder wall. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the feasibility of this algorithm as a component of virtual CT cystoscopy. METHODS Five subjects with a history of superficial transitional-cell carcinoma of the bladder under...
متن کاملVirtual cystoscopy: reality in imaging of bladder tuberculosis.
We present a case of urinary tuberculosis investigated initially by ultrasound and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). The MDCT-derived volumetric data were used to generate virtual cystoscopy (VC) images, which revealed a bladder ulcer. The presence of this ulcer was confirmed by conventional cystoscopy-guided biopsy and there was good agreement regarding various features of the ulcer, s...
متن کاملA comparison of white-light cystoscopy and narrow-band imaging cystoscopy to detect bladder tumour recurrences.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether narrow-band imaging (NBI) cystoscopy enhances the detection of non-muscle-invasive bladder tumours over standard white-light imaging (WLI) cystoscopy, as surveillance WLI is the standard method used to diagnose patients with recurrent bladder tumours, but they can be missed by WLI cystoscopy, possibly accounting for early recurrences. PATIENTS AND METHODS We eva...
متن کاملVirtual computed tomography cystoscopy in bladder pathologies.
OBJECTIVE Assessed the usefulness of virtual cystoscopy performed with multidetector computed tomography (CT) in patients with different urinary bladder pathologies compared to the conventional cystoscopy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighteen patients with different bladder pathologies, which consisted of 11 tumors, 3 diverticula, 2 trabecular changes and 2 stones, were assessed with conventional c...
متن کاملApplying narrow-band imaging in complement with white-light imaging cystoscopy in the detection of urothelial carcinoma of the bladder.
OBJECTIVES To investigate the value of narrow-band imaging (NBI) flexible cystoscopy in the detection of urothelial carcinoma (UC) of the bladder. MATERIALS AND METHODS Clinical data of 179 patients with suspected UC, who presented with gross hematuria, were collected at China PLA General Hospital from January 2009 to August 2010. These patients underwent white-light imaging (WLI) cystoscopy ...
