A member asked:
A bladder mass of 2.5 by 1.5 cm was found by a pelvic ultra sound on my wife, 66 years old. could it be cancer?

Cancer needs to be: Excluded. Whenever a mass is discovered in an organ, cancer needs to be excluded. In the case of bladder masses, the usual techniques are urine cytology and cystoscopy with biopsy. It is important that you follow your doctor's advice.

Yes: Cystoscopy should definitely be done by a urologist.
