BACKGROUND

The Bladder Cancer Index (BCI) was developed by researchers at the University of Michigan to measure health related quality of life among men with bladder cancer. It represents an adaptation of the UCLA Prostate Cancer Index, modified to enhance sensitivity to therapy effects by increasing the number of prostate-targeted items to 50 (compared to 20 in the original UCLA-PCI).
