Transrectal and transabdominal ultrasound was used to detect the recurrence of bladder tumours and compared with conventional cystoscopy. Forty patients with a previous history of bladder tumour were examined by these methods; 50% had a recurrence. Transabdominal and transrectal ultrasound together identified 95% of recurrences; 1 tumour (diameter 1 mm) was missed. The false positive rate was 5% and these areas, identified wrongly by ultrasound as tumour, were shown to be scars on cystoscopy. Combination ultrasound may be used as an alternative to check cystoscopy in certain categories of bladder tumour.

The use of cytology for the detection and diagnosis of cancer has been a rapidly developing area of pathology. Cytology has been used for mass screening of asymptomatic people, for selective screening of individuals at high risk, and for diagnosis in patients suspected of having cancer. The only area in which mass screening has proved to be cost effective in reducing morbidity and mortality rates is cancer of the uterine cervix. Selective high risk screening has been proposed for endometrium, lung, urinary tract, gastrointestinal tract and oral cavity. Field trials have been performed for each site and some are still operational While a degree of success has been achieved in identifying patients with early and asymptomatic cancer, cost effectiveness has not as yet been demonstrated and it seems unlikely that it will be. The cytologic diagnosis of cancer of these sites in symptomatic patients is highly effective for lung and bladder cancer. It has been somewhat less effective for gastrointestinal cancer. It is also of value in identifying cancer cells in effusions and for cancer staging. Fine‐needle aspiration biopsy for the diagnosis of cancer has been used for over half a century, but in more recent years it has gained wider usage and is now used to diagnose tumors of almost any organ. It is highly cost effective, does not require hospitalization or anesthetic, and is rapid and accurate. Some of the indications and limitations of cellular diagnosis of cancer are presented.

We have studied the accuracy of transabdominal ultrasound (TAUS) in the diagnosis of early superficial bladder carcinoma. One hundred and twenty-six patients returning for check cystoscopy were scanned pre-operatively with the Technicare Autosector Scanner and the results compared with the endoscopic findings. Forty-four patients (37%) had a tumour recurrence. TAUS demonstrated a lesion in 50% of these with a false positive rate of 11%. The diagnostic accuracy was proportional to the tumour size (82% of patients with tumours above 5 mm were detected compared with 38% below 5 mm), but was not affected by grade, stage or position in the bladder. TAUS may prove a useful adjunct to cytology as a screening test for bladder cancer.
