Cystography in Bladder Tumours. A Technique Using “Steripaque” and Carbon Dioxide

Abstract

A technique of cystography designed to assist in the diagnosis and assessment of bladder tumours is described. The contrast media used are Steripaque, a sterilised suspension of barium sulphate, and carbon dioxide. A number of cystograms is demonstrated, and an attempt made to assess the place of cystography in the light of the other diagnostic procedures commonly in use.
