| Abstract: | A prospective study was carried out on 60 patients. The diagnostic usefulness of intravenous urography (IVU) compared with that of cystoscopy in assessing the state of the bladder mucosa was evaluated. Collectively, radiology was as good as cystoscopy in suggesting the final diagnosis of the location and severity of a mucosal lesion. The after-micturition film (AMF) from IVU was the single most informative film which produced correct results in 59 of 60 patients. The full bladder film was the least useful examination and in 45 cases suggested an incorrect or misleading diagnosis. |
