Multidetector computed tomography evaluation of bladder lesions

초록

Background: Urinary bladder tumors are the most common type of tumors detected in patients with gross hematuria. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) is an accurate method for detecting bladder lesions. This review aims to describe the features of MDCT and the possible values for distinguishing these lesions in the bladder. Main body: In this review, we discuss the role of MDCT in the evaluation of patients with bladder cancer and describe a broad spectrum of bladder lesions, including malignant bladder lesions beyond bladder cancer, benign bladder lesions, and diffuse bladder wall thickening. Short conclusion: Familiarity with the clinical presentations and imaging features of bladder lesions can lead to more accurate diagnosis and appropriate management. © 2023, The Author(s).
