title: Screening for bladder cancer: U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommendation statement.
abstract: METHODS
  Update of the 2004 U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommendation statement on screening for bladder cancer.
  
  
  METHODS
  The USPSTF performed a targeted literature search for new evidence on the benefits and harms of screening, the accuracy of primary care-feasible screening tests, and the benefits and harms of treatment.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The USPSTF concludes that the current evidence is insufficient to assess the balance of benefits and harms of screening for bladder cancer in asymptomatic adults (I statement).
