[Value of x-ray computed tomography in evaluating the spread and therapeutic strategy in cancer of the bladder].
Fifty four computed (CT) examinations were performed on patients with bladder carcinoma. A pathological assessment was obtained in 24 cases and the accuracy of CT in local staging was 91%. The accuracy of CT in detecting lymph nodes invasion was also 91%. Moreover, CT is helpful in the follow-up of patients under treatment. As it provides a correct pre-therapeutic evaluation in 83% cases, CT appears as an effective examination to perform in the evaluation of bladder carcinoma.
