Sentence Examples

Cystoscopy (looking into the bladder with a thin telescope-like instrument) and x rays with a contrast agent to illuminate the urinary system will usually identify the defect.
Often, the two procedures are done together: a urologist performs the cystoscopy, then a radiologist instills a contrast agent into the bladder and takes x rays.
X rays of the urinary system or a cystoscopy (examination with a telescope-like instrument) will identify them.
