Brief Answer:
You do not have a malignancy
Detailed Answer:
Hi Dmorrissey37,
To answer your question: No, you cannot. A cystoscopy combined with CT w/wo contrast only a years time ago rules out that a malignancy has developed. If you do not have other symptoms (weight loss, pain, etc.) you do not need further evaluation.
Hope this helps. Please contact me again if you have further questions.
