#USANZ26 was a raging success 🔥. Loved learning from all the stellar faculty, and beyond grateful to spend time Down Under with friends, new and old. Thank you for the invitation @RenuEapen @USANZUrology!!!

At #USANZ26 a number of doctors and nurses asked for a full page bladder image, with bladder cancer staging, and space to write notes for patients.

Here it is! A PDF that should print perfectly. Free to use via this link:
