urine cytology specimens

Urine cytology is a medical test that examines cells in urine to check for abnormalities, such as cancer or infections. During the test, a sample of urine is collected and the cells are analyzed under a microscope. This helps doctors identify conditions affecting the bladder or urinary tract. Urine cytology is often used as a screening tool, especially for people at higher risk of bladder cancer, and it can guide further testing or treatment if necessary. It’s a non-invasive procedure, making it a valuable part of diagnostic medicine.
