About Cystoscopy Diagnostic

A diagnostic cystoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure performed by a urologist to visually examine the inside of the bladder and urethra. Using a thin, flexible tube called a cystoscope, which contains a light and a camera, the doctor can identify abnormalities such as tumors, stones, inflammation, or structural issues. This procedure is a cornerstone of urological diagnostics, providing direct visualization that is often essential for accurately diagnosing conditions like recurrent urinary tract infections, blood in the urine (hematuria), or urinary incontinence. It is typically an outpatient procedure, offering a quick and effective way to investigate urinary symptoms and guide further treatment.

PATIENT REVIEW

My dad was admitted to MGM...

My dad was admitted to MGM with a bad fever and we were all worried. Dr. Ramya Shri was the one who really talked to us. She didn't just give medical updates; she explained things in a way we could understand, told us what to watch for at home, and actually listened to our concerns. It made a stressful time much easier to handle.
