Brief summary
This research study is being done to see how well the JetTouch Needle-Free Endoscopic Injection System is able to deliver a solution safely into the bladder wall. The JetTouch Needle-Free Endoscopic Injection System is a jet injector that allows fluids to be injected into the bladder without using a needle. It is hoped that this method will provide a reliable and consistent method to deliver drugs into the bladder wall.
Interventions
Needle-free injection system believed to provide consistent and reliable delivery of material to the bladder wall.
