Bladder Cancer: Diagnosis and Clinical Management, 1st Edition, is a clinical reference book dedicated to evaluating and managing urothelial malignancies. The volume maintains a direct clinical focus rather than emphasizing basic science or pathogenesis.
Core subject areas include diagnostic methods, urine biomarkers, and imaging alongside both drug therapies and surgical interventions across disease stages. Coverage spans non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer, radical cystectomy, and systemic chemotherapy regimens.
Practicing urologists and oncologists will find clinical management algorithms and guidelines from ASCO, the AUA, ESMO, and the EAU. Each chapter is illustrated in full color and includes concise practical tips to assist clinicians in selecting individualized treatment programs.
