Cystoscopy
Cystoscopy is a procedure in which a thin instrument with a light at the tip (a
cystoscope
) is inserted into the
urethra
. The cytoscope enables examination of the inner surfaces of the urinary tract, specifically the
bladder
and
urethra
. Many cystoscopes have extra tubes to guide instruments for procedures to treat urinary problems. Cystoscopy may be carried out for a range of urinary tract problems, including such things as frequent
urinary tract infections
; blood in the urine; loss of bladder control;
urinary blockage
or narrowing of the urinary tract; an unusual growth,
polyp
or
tumour
; and a stone in the urinary tract. A
Urologist
will perform a cystoscopy.
