About the event
Topic: It's Sedimentary
Epithelial Cells and a Cast of Thousands
The complete urinalysis is a critical component of the minimum database. Dr. DeNicola will discuss why it’s important to understand and accurately perform a urine sediment analysis. You will learn about the identification of squamous epithelial cells, nonsquamous epithelial cells, hyaline casts, and nonhyaline casts; the clinical significance of each to the patient; and the possible next steps to arriving at a diagnosis.
Discussion Topics:
Identify squamous and nonsquamous epithelial cells and hyaline and nonhyaline casts.
Understand the clinical significance of the absence or presence of these formed elements.
