SEPTEMBER 2024 – Welcome to Urology Awareness month. What does Urology mean? It is the area of medicine concerned with the function and disorders of our urinary system (how we wee!), be it the kidneys, the tubes that carry carry urine, the bladder or the prostate (in men).
Did you know there is now a revolutionary new test available for detecting bladder cancer early that can replace the need for a cystoscopy in those of us diagnosed with haematuria (blood in the urine). Blood in the urine is quite common, but fortunately only around 10% of cases are due to a new or recurring bladder cancer. More and more people are choosing the new Galeas Bladder cancer detection test over a cystoscopy, for obvious reasons, to rule out bladder cancer. Fully endorsed and supported by both the NHS and BUPA this test could be for you. Test from a home collected urine sample.
Prostate cancer is highly hereditary with up to 60% of cases caused by inherited genetic variants from father to son. If prostate cancer is in your family and you want to find out quickly if you carry a genetic variant that could put you at a higher risk of developing prostate cancer our ISO Accredited NHS approved prostate cancer panel is a sensible option.
