A urinalysis, also called a urine panel, consists of a series of tests used to evaluate the visual, chemical, and microscopic features of urine. It can help identify signs of kidney or urinary tract conditions, including markers associated with infection, inflammation, or abnormal substances in the urine. Urinalysis may also be used as part of the evaluation for conditions such as kidney disease, diabetes, and liver disease.
When evaluating for UTIs, urinalysis is not required to make a diagnosis, but it can offer a pathway to effective treatment, symptom relief, and complication prevention. An abnormal urinalysis by itself does not necessarily mean you have a UTI and need treatment. It is also possible to have a negative urinalysis and still have a UTI. A urinary tract infection (UTI) can be more than just an inconvenience; if left untreated or misdiagnosed, it can lead to serious kidney complications.
