What is CULTURE - URINE?

A Urine Culture test identifies and counts bacteria in your urine that might be causing an infection. It helps determine the specific type of bacteria present, which is crucial for effective treatment.

Why is this test important?

This test is vital for diagnosing urinary tract infections (UTIs) and guiding antibiotic therapy. It helps doctors choose the right medication to eliminate the infection and prevent complications.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required. You will be asked to provide a clean-catch midstream urine sample.
