What is Cystoscopy (Bladder Scope)? Read the full explainer →

Cystoscopy (Bladder Scope)

A cystoscopy is a direct look inside the urethra and bladder using a thin lighted scope passed up through the urinary opening. This code is the diagnostic look by itself — nothing removed, nothing treated. It is usually done in a urology office or clinic room with numbing gel rather than in an operating room, and takes only a few minutes.
