What is "urinalysis"?
Urinalysis is a test that examines a sample of urine to evaluate overall health and diagnose various conditions. It involves analyzing the urine's appearance, density, and content, including substances such as proteins, glucose, red and white blood cells, and bacteria. This test can help identify issues such as urinary tract infections, kidney disease, diabetes, and other health problems. By evaluating these aspects, doctors can get information about a person's health and decide if further testing or treatment is necessary.
