Bladder cancer (BC) represents a significant global health challenge with notable incidence and mortality rates. Despite treatment advancements, its management remains complex, requiring a multidisciplinary approach. Imaging techniques play a pivotal role in diagnosis, staging, and treatment planning by aiding lesion localization, differentiation, and assessment of tumor extent. Primary modalities like computed tomography and MRI offer detailed anatomic insights. Imaging provides valuable insights into tumor biology, vascular patterns, and molecular profiles, enabling personalized medicine strategies to optimize therapeutic efficacy and minimize adverse effects, crucial for improving BC management and prognosis.
