Urine Sediment Examination: Comparison Between Laboratory-Performed Versus Nephrologist-Performed Microscopy and Accuracy in Predicting Pathologic Diagnosis in Patients with Acute Kidney Injury

Urine Sediment Examination: Comparison Between Laboratory-Performed Versus Nephrologist-Performed Microscopy and Accuracy in Predicting Pathologic Diagnosis in Patients with Acute Kidney Injury

A nephrologist is more likely to recognize the presence of pathologic casts and dysmorphic red blood cells. Nephrologist-performed urine sediment analysis is also highly accurate in diagnosing acute tubular injury or glomerulonephritis when compared with kidney biopsy.
