A day of truth about kidneys

Regular drinking regimen, accurate portion markings - containers and instructions are provided.

Urine is the mirror of the urinary system
For a urology clinic, urine tests are a daily tool: OAM screens, Nechiporenko specifies latent inflammation and hematuria, culture names the causative agent of cystitis and pyelonephritis with an antibiogram, Zimnitsky evaluates the concentration function of the kidneys, cytology insures against urothelial tumors, and analysis of the composition of the removed stone determines the entire prevention of relapse. Correct collection is half the truth: instruction is required.
