[Computer tomography for the detection of bladder tumors (author's transl)].
Computer tomography examinations were conducted during pre-treatment investigations in 30 patients with histologically-confirmed bladder cancer. Comparison of anatomical and radiological findings demonstrated that the C.T. scan supplied precise details on any extension of the lesion, enabling choice of therapy to be made in 90% of the cases. These results, which are confirmed by published reports, are discussed in relation to data supplied by other complementary examinations. The conclusion is that the C.T. scan should be employed systematically before starting treatment for bladder tumors.
