So a negative result requires no Cystoscopy and a positive result does??????

Yes, to identify what type of cancer, where it is and to what extent it has developed.

The benefit of CXBT in the diagnosis process is that many people who have symptoms that might be bladder cancer (e.g. micro hematuria) are reluctant to have a cystoscopy as it's an unpleasant procedure and frequently negative for cancer. Accordingly some positive cases are not detected early when treatment would be more successful. CXBT with it 99% NPV gives a patient peace of mind that their symptoms are not bladder cancer.

Here's to hoping that we get some strong comments or addtional information from PEB next Tuesday about the Novitas LCD.

It would be nice, as a minimum, to have some feedback from the AUA conference. I wouldn't be anticipating any startling new info in the results. Anything material should be immediately released.
