The most common type of bladder cancer is urothelial carcinoma which arises from the inside lining (e.g., urothelium) of the bladder. As the disease progresses, the tumor may invade into the deep layer of the bladder wall, spread to adjacent areas of the bladder, or to other organs of the body. Common clinical symptoms of bladder cancer may present as painless hematuria. High-resolution ultrasound imaging has been used for diagnosis and differential diagnosis of bladder abnormalities. We report a case study using gray-scale and Doppler imaging to evaluate urothelial carcinoma of urinary bladder.
