No, a urine culture does not detect cancer, as its purpose is to identify urinary tract infections through the presence of bacteria. However, other urine tests, such as a urinalysis or urine cytology, may suggest the presence of cancer by detecting blood or abnormal cells in the urine. If there is suspicion of cancer in the urinary system, additional studies such as biomarker tests, ultrasound, CT scans or biopsies are required to confirm the diagnosis. If you detect blood in the urine with no apparent cause, it is essential to see a physician for further evaluation.
