Urology at Cooper Hospital

Urology is the surgical and medical specialty that deals with diseases involving the kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra, and male reproductive organs (the testicles and penis). It is an extremely broad field that covers many complex conditions. Urologists often specialize in certain areas of the field in which they have extensive expertise. Many urologists also work in academic medical centers where they conduct research and teach other doctors and health care professionals.

During your visit to the urologist, the doctor will ask about your health history and perform a physical exam. They may also order some tests. These may include imaging tests such as a CT or MRI scan, bloodwork, and a urine test. They may also use a cystoscope, a thin probe with a camera that is passed into the urinary tract. They can use this to look for and remove small tissue samples, which are then tested to find out the cause of your symptoms.
