The scope is done by the urologist. It's kind of like being catherized only it's a small instrument that's put in and pushed to your bladder. The image shows up on a screen and you can watch it, not that I knew what it was supposed to look like,(just looked like a bunch of bubbles to me). It checks for any problems with the bladder. I was having a lot of urinary infections so that's why my primary care doc sent me to the urologist.
