Abstract

This chapter will discuss some of the currently available urine markers for bladder cancer and prostate cancer and the appropriate clinical scenarios in which each test may be used. Given the complexity of urine testing for malignancy, urologists are best equipped to order these tests and interpret the results in the clinical context of each patient. The tests presented here should not be ordered in the primary care setting.
