The Need

An ill woman listens to a physician.
Early and accurate diagnosis of bladder cancer is critical in patients with hematuria.3
  • Four out of five people with bladder cancer have blood in their urine4
  • But 80–90% of patients with visible hematuria, and over 95% of patients with non-visible hematuria do NOT have cancer
  • There are many known causes of hematuria including urinary tract infection, nephrolitiasis (stones), etc4
  • In patients with hematuria, it can be difficult to decide which patients might have cancer and which patients might have a different condition
  • Primary care physicians are sometimes reluctant to refer patients with visible or significant microscopic hematuria to urology for further investigation5
