Improvement of the Collection, Maintenance, and Analysis of Neoplastic Cells from Urine Specimens with the Use of CytoMatrix.

Urine cytology is a non-invasive test used in combination with cystoscopy for screening and follow-up of urothelial carcinoma (UC). Although cytology can be used to efficiently identify high-grade UC, it has a lower accuracy for the diagnosis of low-grade UC or patients with presence of atypical urothelial cells (AUC). For these reasons, ancillary tests have been added to urine cytology in order to improve the accuracy.
