Urological disease affects huge numbers of patients at some point in their lives. Diagnostic techniques are critical to ensure the correct diagnosis is made in a timely manner. A huge number of new technologies have been introduced in recent years to aid in this diagnostic pathway in the form of urine tests, blood tests and imaging modalities. Both urologists and other clinicians interested in urology have struggled to keep up with the rapid evolution of these techniques. This book contains up to date and state of the art contributions from major names in the field. It describes the diagnostic pathways for the key aspects of urological disease. Readers will be able to equate symptoms and signs with the relevant investigations. The book focuses on the diagnostic pathways involved, bringing together international leaders in the field who describe the current status of urological investigation.
