Summary

To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of CEUS for the preoperative staging of bladder cancer, which would benefit the implementation of efficient therapeutic strategies.

Detailed description

Bladder cancer can be grouped into non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) and muscle invasive bladder cancers (MIBC), the latter displaying high aggressiveness, a high degree of malignancy, complicated treatment, high propensity to metastasis, and poor prognosis. Currently, the clinical feasibility and accuracy of preoperative detection of muscle invasion in bladder cancer with contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) are unclear. To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of CEUS for the preoperative staging of bladder cancer, which would benefit the implementation of efficient therapeutic strategies.
