The urinary bladder can be affected by a number of conditions such as cystitis, urinary incontinence, bladder cancer, interstitial cystitis and overactive bladder. These conditions are together referred to as bladder disease. Such diseases can be diagnosed through X-ray imaging, urine tests and bladder examination using cystoscope. Bladder obstruction is the condition when there is a heavy blood clot formation within the bladder outlet. It generally arises due to bladder cancer and requires surgery. This book discusses the fundamentals as well as modern approaches in the diagnosis and treatment of bladder diseases. It will also provide interesting topics for research which interested readers can take up. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
