The Need
Haematuria, or blood in the urine, is the most common symptom of bladder cancer.3 4 out of 5 people with bladder cancer have some blood in their urine4, however:
The proportion of patients presenting with haematuria whom actually do have bladder cancer is very small.
Therefore it can be difficult for doctors to decide who may have cancer and who might have a different condition.
In US clinical practice, only 13%-30% of all patients with hematuria are sent to the urologists for cystoscopy; because of this, it is estimated that there are over 20,000 missed cancer cases annually in the US6 It is extremely important to identify cancer patients early for the reasons identified above.
- 80-90% patients with gross haematuria do NOT have cancer3
- And over 95% of patients with microhaematuria do NOT have cancer5

The Solution
There are many common causes of haematuria. Not knowing what is causing the haematuria leads to patient anxiety and uncertainty about the best way to follow up on the patient.
A fast, non-invasive diagnostic test provides information to help to decide on the best follow-up strategy for the patient.
