Characterizing the Microvascular Environment of Bladder Cancer With Super-Resolution Ultrasound Localization Microscopy

Sponsor: Duke University

Summary

The project will include 30 patients with bladder cancer who are candidates for bladder removal. After signing the consent form, the study team will collect some clinical data, such as age, past medical history, past surgical history, and information about your current disease. At the day of surgery, after putting participants into sleep and before surgery begins, the study team will do a novel ultrasound called "Super-Resolution Ultrasound Localization Microscopy" to check if there is still disease in the bladder. The team will then compare the results of this investigational ultrasound with the final pathology and other imaging studies.
