URINE CULTURE AND SUSCEPTIBILITY
About test
What does URINE CULTURE AND SUSCEPTIBILITY measure?
This test evaluates urine for bacteria or other microorganisms that may cause a urinary tract infection. If organisms are identified, susceptibility testing assesses which antimicrobial medicines may be more or less effective against them. It may help evaluate suspected urinary infection, recurrent symptoms, or response to treatment. Results are interpreted together with symptoms and other clinical findings.
