Bladder Telescope With Radioactive Implant

Oklahoma rates for HCPCS 52250

A lighted telescope is passed along the urethra into the bladder and a radioactive material is placed at a tumor inside, so radiation is delivered to it directly from within the bladder. A tissue sample may be taken or bleeding sealed during the same procedure. Everything is done through the body's natural passage, with no external incision.
