Why this test?
This test combines a complete urine examination with a urine culture and antibiogram to provide a more detailed assessment of urinary tract health. The complete urine examination evaluates the physical, chemical, and microscopic characteristics of the urine, while the urine culture identifies bacteria or other microorganisms that may be causing an infection. The antibiogram determines which antibiotics are most effective against the detected organism, helping guide targeted treatment. It is especially recommended for individuals experiencing symptoms of a urinary tract infection (UTI), such as burning during urination, increased urinary frequency, pelvic discomfort, changes in urine appearance or odor, or recurrent urinary infections.
