[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing in. Cancer of the urinary bladder is evaluated in a step wise approach. First there may or may not be blood in the urine. This is evaluated by doing an ultrasound scan of urinary bladder as a basic investigation. If there is any cancerous area withing the urinary bladder then it requires a cystoscopy. This is an investigation by which the inner lumen of bladder is directly visualized with the help of a fine tube like endoscope. If any mass is confirmed then a biopsy is also done and the material sent for pathological analysis to the lab. The pathologist in the lab will confirm if there is cancer on the suspicious area or not. If a cancer is confirmed then further detailed examination like CT scan, MRI scan and PET scan might be required to know the stage of disease. As this is your first UTI, please do not get worried and take treatment for your UTI first. Get the ultrasound scan done to clear doubts of any mass in the urinary bladder. Please do not worry.
