A urinalysis ( UA ), also known as Routine and Microscopy ( R&M ), is an array of tests performed on urine , and one of the most common methods of medical diagnosis . The word is a portmanteau of the words urine and analysis . The target parameters that can be measured or quantified in urinalysis include many substances and cells, as well as other properties such as specific gravity . A part of a urinalysis can be performed by using urine test strips , in which the test results can be read as color changes. Another method is light microscopy of urine samples.
