What is a cystoscopy?

Cystoscopy is a urological procedure that allows the inside of the urethra and bladder to be examined using a thin instrument called a cystoscope. It may be used to investigate symptoms such as blood in the urine, painful urination, recurrent urinary tract infections, difficulty urinating, and other urinary tract problems.

When is a cystoscopy needed?

A urologist may recommend a cystoscopy when it is necessary to examine the bladder or urethra, investigate hematuria, identify bladder abnormalities, evaluate recurrent urinary tract infections, or assess possible obstructions and other urological conditions.

What specialist performs a cystoscopy?

A cystoscopy is performed by a urologist, who determines whether the procedure is appropriate based on the patient's symptoms, medical history, and other test results. Depending on the case, it may be used for diagnosis or as part of another urological procedure.
