And then suddenly, because of blue light, you're able to get a better visualization, better resection, so on and so forth. Then you found that, you know, there are studies out there showing that, oops, they really seen a trend of upward migration, right? Of more high grade patients out there. Isn't that true? With the use of blue light, as we've looked over the last handful of years or so.

Yeah. So a lot of this, of course, is very helpful for patients that have non-muscle invasive, right, superficial intervesicles. Is there some data to show with the use of blue light, it's really helped us to identify the muscle invasive patients as well? Like upstaging to that level or is that... You know, usually those are patients that have a little bit more burden in them.

They also, their tumors can look a little aggressive even on white light. They've got, you know, and so sometimes we have more of a hunch of that than we do when people just have very small CIS areas or things like that. But I just wonder if the data also shows it's been helping us to identify patients to move them from the non-muscle invasive into the muscle invasive category. Yeah.

Yeah, that's really amazing. Those numbers are alarming. So I'm thankful that we have something like Blue Light to help us along and look forward to see what's developed even more in the future. There is something else that we can touch quickly just because it is in the AUA SUO guidelines, another form of enhancing detection, but narrowband detection.

imaging or do you have much experience with this? They say you could recommend it to patients. My understanding is there's not a ton of data out there, but it's something maybe to look for in the future to see if there's more enhancement that develops. What can you tell us about that?

Is it really that there aren't many studies out there yet because it's too new? Or is it really that there's enough data just when we look at the data, there doesn't seem to be much benefit? I think it's the latter. I think it's the latter because it's been around for quite some time. Well, it's good to touch on it. It is in the guidelines.

And so I know people think about that now and which one should I do? And as you say, I've been exposed to that as well with Olympus and it is a lot easier, right? But we also have to recognize if it's limited with respect to what it can provide us, then there might be a reason to do the extra steps of the blue light, needless to say. Yeah. Good. Exactly.
