Last year, over 2500 cystoscopic examinations were conducted in medical facilities in Odessa. Cystoscopy is a procedure that allows for the examination of the mucous membranes of the urethra, bladder, and ureters, crucial for detecting urinary tract cancers at early stages.

It is recommended that individuals over 50 undergo cystoscopy routinely, even in the absence of symptoms. If a patient is under 50 but the doctor deems cystoscopy necessary, they should obtain a referral to schedule an appointment at a facility that offers this service.

Cystoscopy is included in the state medical guarantee program and is performed free of charge with a referral from a family or treating physician.

Modern cystoscopic equipment has been purchased for medical facilities in Odessa using the city's budget. Free cystoscopy can be accessed by appointment at the following locations:
- Consultative Diagnostic Center No. 6 — 26a Voluntary Street (Marshal Hovorov);
- City Clinical Hospital No. 10 — 61 Oleksiy Vadatursky Street (Marshal Malynovsky);
- City Clinical Hospital No. 11 — 5 Vitaliy Nesterenko Street (Academician Vorobyov).
