Cytology, Urine

Description

Urine Cytology involves the microscopic examination of cells present in urine samples. This test is crucial for diagnosing various conditions affecting the urinary tract, including the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. It’s particularly useful in detecting urinary tract infections, kidney stones, and urinary tract cancers, especially bladder cancer. The procedure typically involves collecting a urine sample, which is then processed and examined under a microscope. Urine cytology is often used in conjunction with other tests to provide a comprehensive assessment of urinary tract health.
