Test Details:
The Kidney Stone Formation Diagnostic Panel is a set of tests that help diagnose and evaluate the formation of kidney stones. These tests may include:
- Urinalysis: This test examines the physical and chemical properties of urine, including the presence of blood, crystals, and other substances that may contribute to kidney stone formation.
- Blood tests: Blood tests may be done to evaluate kidney function and to check for abnormalities in calcium, phosphate, uric acid, and other substances that can contribute to kidney stone formation.
- Imaging tests: Imaging tests such as X-rays, CT scans, or ultrasounds may be done to visualize the presence, size, and location of kidney stones.
- 24-hour urine collection: This test involves collecting all urine produced over a 24-hour period to measure the levels of various substances that can contribute to kidney stone formation, such as calcium, oxalate, citrate, and uric acid.
- Stone analysis: If a kidney stone is passed or removed, it may be sent to a laboratory for analysis to determine its composition, which can help guide treatment and prevention strategies.
These tests, when combined, can provide valuable information about the underlying causes of kidney stone formation and help guide treatment options to prevent future stone formation. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine which specific tests are necessary for an individual’s case.
