A urinalysis (UA), also known as routine and microscopy (R&M), is an array of tests performed on urine, and one of the most common methods of medical diagnosis. The word is a portmanteau of the words ''urine'' and ''analysis''. The target parameters that can be measured or quantified in urinalysis include many substances and cells, as well as other properties, such as specific gravity. A part of a urinalysis can be performed by using urine test strips, in which the test results can be read as color changes. Another method is light microscopy of urine samples. ==Target parameters== Urine test results should always be interpreted using the reference range provided by the laboratory that performed the test, or using information provided by the test strip/device manufacturer.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://labtestsonline.org/understanding/features/ref-ranges/start/6 )〕 In addition to the substances mentioned in tables below, other tests include a description of color and appearance. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「urinalysis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
