Hello @donsunlover. You ask a great question and one that I hope this article can provide some more answers to.

Where did you learn about this test? Is this of personal interest to you?

Thanks for your quick reply.
I had stage II bladder cancer. Cystoscopy surgery to remove tumor, then Cisplatin treatment. CT scan still showed something, so another cystoscopy surgery to get biopsy and determine cancer free. Am looking for less invasive means of routine testing to detect possible recurrence. How often should this test be done?

Are there any statistic on the possibility of false negative results. I tested positive with a urine FISH test. Trying to determine if it is a false positive. Still looking for the best, accurate non-invasive test to avoid unnecessary surgery to do biopsy.
