Monitor Bone and Kidney Health - 24-Hour Urine Calcium Test

Calcium (Ca), 24 hr Urine analysis is a laboratory test that measures the amount of calcium excreted in the urine over a full 24-hour period. This analysis is considered an important tool for evaluating calcium levels in the body, as it helps diagnose conditions such as hypercalcemia, thyroid gland disorders, or kidney problems. The urine sample is collected over 24 hours to ensure accurate measurement, and atomic absorption spectrophotometry is used to analyze the samples. The results of this test help physicians identify the possible cause of calcium imbalance and guide appropriate treatment options.
