Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
At the day of surgery, after putting participants into sleep and before surgery begins, the study team will do a novel ultrasound called "Super-Resolution Ultrasound Localization Microscopy" to check if there is still disease in the bladder. The team will then compare the results of this investigational ultrasound with the final pathology and other imaging studies.
