Indication

Most patients with macroscopic hematuria, especially when over 50 years, should undergo both cystoscopy and CT urography.[1]

Microscopic hematuria indicates further workup with cystoscopy and/or CT urography if there are significant underlying risk factors, mainly:[1]

  • Male sex
  • Age, especially being older than 60 years
  • Smoking
  • Pelvic radiation
