Bladder Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a single centre, single arm feasibility study assessing the feasibility of using computer vision methods to recreate the 3D bladder shape and to then map the cystoscopy images onto this bladder shape. If feasible, this 3D reconstructed shape would be spatially registered to radiological images (CT, MR) that are then used during radiation treatment planning. This analysis would not be used for making any clinical treatment decisions on the patient.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* 18 years of age or older. * Clinical suspicion or histologic diagnosis of bladder tumour suitable for endoscopic evaluation. * Intention to treat using external beam radiation therapy as part of standard of care. * Ability to provide written informed consent to participate in the study.
Exclusion criteria
* Prior complete or partial radiation therapy to bladder. * Contraindications to radiation therapy as determined by the treating physician. * Concurrent illness or condition that precludes subject from undergoing endoscopy or CT scanning.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Video recording of Cystoscopy | At study completion, up to 2 years | To determine the feasibility of using bladder endoscopic video images to reconstruct the three-dimensional shape of the bladder based on computer visions methods that employ feature extraction and triangulation and to map the endoscopy images onto the recreated 3D surface. |
| Contouring of 3D bladder rendering | At study completion, up to 2 years | To determine the feasibility of contouring the mucosal disease on the 3D bladder rendering. |
| Registering bladder shape | At study completion, up to 2 years | To determine the feasibility of registering the bladder shape to a CT/MR scan of the patient using deformable shape methods. |
