| Abstract: | Urothelial bladder cancer is a common malignancy requiring a multidisciplinary approach to treatment. Significant recent advances have been made in terms of the genetic and molecular characterization of bladder cancer subtypes, and novel treatment approaches are being investigated and approved. Given the important role of imaging in the diagnosis, staging, and follow-up of this disease, it is necessary for radiologists to remain up-to-date in terms of nomenclature and standards of care. In this review, recent developments in bladder cancer characterization and treatment will be discussed, with reference to the contributions of imaging in non-muscle-invasive, muscle-invasive, and metastatic settings. |
