The Stone Analysis Kidney (Renal) Calculus test examines the kidney stones (hard deposits made from minerals and salts) for their structure, composition, and other characteristics. It helps understand why they formed in the kidneys and what the stone is made of, such as calcium, uric acid, or other materials. This test is widely available with Tata 1mg labs at an affordable price in Bangalore. 

The Stone Analysis Kidney (Renal) Calculus test is recommended when someone is experiencing symptoms suggestive of kidney stones, like severe pain in the lower back and lower abdomen, nausea and vomiting, blood in the urine, frequent urge to urinate, painful urination, fever and chills, etc. It is particularly beneficial for individuals who have previously suffered from kidney stones or who are at high risk of developing them. This test is also recommended for those who have passed a stone and want to know its exact composition in order to guide further treatment or preventive measures.

Usually, no special preparation is needed for this test. Eat and drink as per the daily routine. However, providing the clinical history before giving the sample is preferred.

Understanding Stone Analysis Kidney (Renal) Calculus

Kidney stones, or calculi, are small, hard masses that form within the kidneys. These stones develop when minerals and salts in the urine crystallize and accumulate in the kidneys. While kidney stones can vary in size, they can be intense, particularly when they move through the ureters, causing blockages. Knowing the type and composition of a kidney stone helps doctors understand its relation to risk factors and recommend preventive measures.

The Stone Analysis Kidney (Renal) Calculus test is a diagnostic process that determines the exact chemical composition of kidney stones. This analysis is essential for understanding the type of stone an individual has, which directly influences the treatment approach. Different kidney stones form due to factors like diet, dehydration, health conditions, and medications. Knowing the stone’s composition allows doctors to suggest lifestyle or dietary changes, medications, or specific treatments aimed at preventing new stone formation in the kidneys.

The Stone Analysis Kidney (Renal) Calculus test is recommended when someone is experiencing symptoms suggestive of kidney stones, like severe pain in the lower back and lower abdomen, nausea and vomiting, blood in the urine, frequent urge to urinate, painful urination, fever and chills, etc. It is particularly beneficial for individuals who have previously suffered from kidney stones or who are at high risk of developing them. This test is also recommended for those who have passed a stone (removal of kidney stone through urine) and want to know its exact composition in order to guide further treatment or preventive measures.

Usually, no special preparation is needed for this test. Eat and drink as per the daily routine. However, providing your clinical history before giving the sample is preferred .

Test result ranges may vary across laboratories. Abnormal test results require an expert interpretation. Therefore, never try to self-medicate at home based solely on these results. Always consult a doctor for a proper understanding of the test results.

Please note: This is an outsourced test. The sample for this test is collected by TATA 1MG and processed at a NABL accredited partnered lab.

What does Stone Analysis Kidney (Renal) Calculus measure?

The Stone Analysis Kidney (Renal) Calculus test helps analyze the chemical composition of a kidney (renal) stone or calculus using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, which determines the types of minerals. The test measures the infrared spectrum of the stone, which allows the identification of the chemical composition of the stone, such as calcium oxalate and phosphate, magnesium ammonium phosphate (struvite), uric acid, cystine, and other components. Understanding the specific composition of the stone helps healthcare providers determine the most appropriate treatment options and preventive measures, tailored to the type of stone and its underlying causes.
