2. Microhematuria - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microhematuria

   Microhematuria, also called microscopic hematuria (both usually abbreviated as MH), is a medical condition in which urine contains small amounts of blood; the blood quantity is too low to change the color of the urine (otherwise, it is known as gross hematuria).

3. Hematuria - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hematuria

   [2] [6] Microscopic hematuria is present when there are three or more red blood cells per high power field. [3] In terms of the anatomical origin, blood or red blood cells can enter and mix with urine at multiple anatomical sites within the urinary system, including the kidney, ureter, urinary bladder, and urethra, and in men, the prostate.

4. Urinalysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urinalysis

   The formation of urine takes place in microscopic structures called nephrons, about one million of which are found in a normal human kidney. Blood enters the kidney though the renal artery and flows through the kidney's vasculature into the glomerulus, a tangled knot of capillaries surrounded by Bowman's capsule.

5. Loin pain hematuria syndrome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loin_pain_hematuria_syndrome

   Urine testing can be performed to detect microscopic levels of hematuria. Protein is also commonly found in the urine of patients with LPHS. Kidney biopsies are sometimes performed to look for evidence of glomerular hematuria, excess red blood cells in the kidney tubules, and to assess the width of the glomerular basement membrane. [4]

6. Urine cytology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urine_cytology

   In urine cytology, collected urine is examined microscopically. One limitation, however, is the inability to definitively identify low-grade cancer cells and urine cytology is used mostly to identify high-grade tumors. [4] If the test detects atypical or cancerous cells, further tests may be recommended, such as cystoscopy and a CT scan.

7. Urine test strip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urine_test_strip

   The normal number of red blood cells in urine should not usually exceed 3 per high power field. [13] A urine test strip showing positive for blood can also indicate hemoglobinuria, which is not detectable using a microscope due to the lysis of red blood cells in the urinary tract (particularly in alkaline or dilute urine), or intravascular ...

   A urine test is any medical test performed on a urine specimen. The analysis of urine is a valuable diagnostic tool because its composition reflects the functioning of many body systems, particularly the kidneys and urinary system , and specimens are easy to obtain. [ 1 ]
