Urinary Tract Infection Panel

A Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) Panel is a series of tests conducted on a urine sample to detect infections in the urinary system, which includes the bladder, urethra, and kidneys. The panel typically looks for bacteria, white blood cells, and other substances that indicate an infection. It helps doctors diagnose a UTI, determine the specific bacteria causing it, and guide appropriate treatment. This testing is important for effectively addressing symptoms like frequent urination, pain during urination, or lower abdominal discomfort and preventing complications.
