Citología de orina

Consideraciones:

El diagnóstico de cáncer o de enfermedad inflamatoria no se puede realizar exclusivamente por medio de este examen. Los resultados se confirman mediante otras pruebas o procedimientos diagnósticos. Una técnica llamada hibridación fluorescente in situ (HFIS) se puede usar para evaluar el material genético en las células eliminadas en la orina con el fin de detectar mejor los cánceres.
