Overview

Bladder cancer makes up about 4% of cancers in the US. It is the fourth most common cancer in men, but it’s less common in women. Join us for a FREE half-day, in-person event and understand the latest treatment options, diagnostic tests, imaging, and multidisciplinary treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, muscle-invasive bladder cancer, and metastatic urothelial cancer. The education will foster collaborative efforts amongst Inova physicians, APPs, nurses, and allied health professionals.
