About the Procedure

Urine Cytology examines urine cells under a microscope to detect cancerous or abnormal cells in the urinary tract. Urinalysis is a general urine test that evaluates chemical, physical, and microscopic properties to detect infections, kidney disease, diabetes, or other urinary disorders. Both tests are non-invasive, simple, and provide important information for diagnosis and monitoring.

Eligibility

Patients with blood in urine, recurrent urinary infections, or unexplained urinary symptoms.
Suspected bladder, kidney, or urinary tract cancers.
Monitoring chronic kidney disease or diabetes.
Individuals with urinary tract obstruction or stones.
Routine evaluation in high-risk patients or follow-up after treatment.

Care Before the Tests

Collect a midstream urine sample in a clean container.
Follow any specific instructions from your doctor regarding diet or medications.
Avoid contamination by cleaning the genital area before collection.
No fasting is usually required.

Care During the Tests

Urine is analyzed chemically, physically, and microscopically (urinalysis).
For cytology, cells are examined under a microscope for abnormalities.
Tests are quick, painless, and non-invasive.

Care After the Tests

Resume normal activities immediately.
Results are reviewed by your doctor to guide treatment or further testing.
Follow-up may be required if abnormalities or infections are detected.
