Cystoscopy or Cystourethroscopy. A procedure usually performed by a urologist that allows the physician to see the inside of the lower urinary tract (urethra, prostate, bladder neck, and bladder). Cystoscopy can be used to detect abnormalities of the lower urinary tract or to assist in transurethral surgery.

Spinal anesthesia is generally preferred for transurethral resections for a number of reasons, not the least of which is the ability to converse with the patient and to evaluate him for symptoms of an early dilutional hyponatremia (ie, transurethral resection [TUR] syndrome) during surgery.
