Abstract
Urinary bladder cancer is a heterogeneous disease with a variety of pathologic features, cytogenetic (Verma et al., Radiographics 32:371–387, 2012). Early detection is important, since up to 47% of bladder cancer-related deaths may have been avoided (Verma et al., Radiographics 32:371–387, 2012). This chapter covers the staging conundrum.
