Indication for CT urography in hematuria
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
