Stone Composition Analysis in Urology

The lab analyst determines the composition of the calculus or stone by performing an infrared spectroscopic analysis. The calculus may be of kidney, bladder, ureter, or gall bladder origin. Kidney stones are commonly composed of calcium, carbonate, cystine, magnesium, oxalate, phosphates, or urates, with calcium oxalate being the most common matter.
