Hi Jjbrown,
I can only tell you of my experience. I have had 2 turbt surgeries. First was traditional and my follow up turbt was blue-light. For my first I went to a "surgicare" outpatient facility and for the bluelight I went to the main hospital (associated with same surgicare). The hospital was more expensive and I am pretty sure that they just being introduced in that facility. I say this because the Bluelight product people were there at the time of my surgery. After surgery my Urologist gave my wife the photos showing the bluelight pics. First surgery I has a papillary tumor removed with suspicious spots noted. I was given a dye before surgery and rolled around for about an hour or so to spread the contrast or dye?? My doctor told me he was glad that he used the bluelight because this time the pathology showed the suspicious spot was CIS. Most importantly for me one was on the "dome" of my bladder - he said it was harder to remove and even had to have an assistant push down on my bladder to help with resection. It has been 2 years since my initial diagnosis, initial 6 BCG and ongoing maintenance BCG.
I couldn't say it is better or not but I think it might make it easier to spot in some cases from what I have read. Best of luck, I have all the confidence that you will be OK when you get this behind you.
Peace and Love - Dave
