About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to see if a new designed optical coherence tomography catheter can be used in bladder cancer in patients undergoing a transurethral resection of a bladder tumour. The main question it aims to answer is:

\- Is the optical coherence tomography catheter feasible in capturing images of bladder tumours and normal bladder wall during a transurethral resection of a bladder tumour?

Participants will undergo measurements with a new optical coherence tomography device during the transurethral resection of their bladder tumour(s).
