Understanding Your Uroplakin-III Test
This specialised test detects the presence of Uroplakin-III protein markers in bladder tissue samples. Think of it as a highly accurate detective that identifies specific cellular changes that may indicate bladder cancer or other urothelial conditions. Unlike standard tests, immunohistochemistry provides detailed molecular information that helps your healthcare team make more informed treatment decisions.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you’re experiencing:
- Unexplained blood in urine (haematuria)
- Persistent urinary symptoms without clear cause
- Previous abnormal bladder biopsy results
- Monitoring bladder cancer treatment effectiveness
- Family history of bladder cancer
- Occupational exposure to known bladder carcinogens
Early detection through precise testing can significantly improve treatment outcomes and provide peace of mind.

- Early Detection: Identifies cellular changes before they become more serious
