Your comments:

  • Cystoscopy is endoscopy of the urinary bladder via the urethra. It is carried out with a cystoscope.

    The urethra is the tube that carries urine from the bladder to the outside of the body. The cystoscope has lenses like a telescope or microscope. These lenses let the physician focus on the inner surfaces of the urinary tract.
