The National Cancer Institute (NCI), The Urologic Oncology Branch (UOB) conducts clinical and basic research designed to develop better methods for detection, prevention, and therapy of patients with genitourinary malignancies. Its primary focus is the study of the genes associated with initiation and progression of kidney, prostate, and bladder cancers. UOB is expanding its bladder cancer program to focus on the development of better methods for diagnosis and treatment of these diseases. The UOB bladder cancer program is focusing on studying the molecular genetic changes associated with superficial and invasive bladder cancer and in developing novel methods for the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of this disease.

To fulfill UOB's mission and objective, UOB needs equipment that can provide the technology for better detection, and subsequently treatment, of bladder cancers. The treatment of bladder cancers is often associated with a high rate of recurrence. In patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, fluorescence cystoscopy can improve the detection and ablation of bladder tumors. Karl Storz Endoscopy is the only provider of the Photodynamic Diagnostic D-Light C (PDD) System, which is indicated for photodynamic blue light cystoscopy, as an adjunct to white light cystoscopy for the detection of non-muscle invasive papillary cancer of the bladder in patients suspected or known to have lesion(s) on the basis of prior cystoscopy. The PDD System allows application of an improved technique in detecting bladder cancer and offers a new tool in the management and treatment of bladder cancer that may increase the detection of lesions not well seen under white light examination. Improved detection of bladder tumors has proven beneficial by allowing for a more complete initial resection.
