The goal of the study is to develop a novel approach to obtain real time optical biopsy of
urinary tract pathology (e.g., bladder tumors) during urinary tract endoscopy using a novel
fibered confocal microscope.
urinary tract pathology (e.g., bladder tumors) during urinary tract endoscopy using a novel
