Clinical Utility of Cxbladder Monitor for Patients with a History of Urothelial Carcinoma: A Physician-Patient Real-World Clinical Data Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

International guidelines advocate regular surveillance of patients following urothelial carcinoma (UC). A validated molecular diagnostic non-invasive urine test, Cxbladder Monitor, correctly identifies patients with a UC history who have low-probability of recurrence.
