Urology and onco-nephrology

Areas of urological and nephrological diagnostics

The catalog combines basic and highly specialized tests for a detailed examination of the kidneys and urinary tract. Patients can order a study of the functional state of the kidneys, including the level of creatinine, urea and uric acid in the blood serum. For an in-depth examination, a general urine analysis with sediment microscopy is performed, as well as specific tumor markers that help detect tumor processes in the kidney tissue and urinary organs even before the first clinical symptoms appear.

The importance of laboratory monitoring of renal pathologies

The laboratory's modern automated equipment provides high accuracy in measuring the minimum concentrations of proteins and tumor markers. The results of most tests are ready in 1 working day, which allows the doctor to quickly differentiate chronic inflammatory diseases from oncological processes. Timely monitoring of indicators is critically important for patients who are at risk or undergoing therapy.

Preparing for urological tests

To obtain reliable results, venous blood sampling is performed in the morning on an empty stomach, after 8–12 hours of fasting.

On the eve of a visit to the Medi Lab Plus department, it is necessary to completely eliminate alcohol consumption, limit spicy, fatty foods, and refrain from significant physical exertion.

In the morning before the procedure, you are allowed to drink only clean, still water. For urine testing, you must collect the first morning portion of biomaterial in a sterile container after carefully carrying out hygiene procedures. Taking any diuretics or specific medications should be agreed with your doctor in advance.
