Researchers are training artificial intelligence (AI) to recognize bladder tumors in surgical videos. The goal is to see if AI can help doctors spot tumors that might otherwise be missed during bladder cancer surgery. This is important because about 40% of patients don't have all their tumors removed during the first surgery.
Bladder cancer comes back frequently, and some tumors are hard to spot with standard surgical cameras. This study exists to develop a tool that helps surgeons see and remove all tumors completely the first time, which could reduce how often the cancer returns.

This is a non-invasive study where researchers use surgical videos from your existing cystoscopy procedure. You don't need to do anything special — the researchers will use your already-recorded video to teach the AI system. Urologists will review the same videos to compare how well the AI detects tumors versus human doctors.
