Listen to

The Complete Urine Examination (CUE) is a common diagnostic procedure used to analyze overall health and detect various conditions affecting the kidneys, urinary tract, and metabolic system. It entails the physical, chemical, and microscopic analysis of a urine sample. The presence of anomalies such as glucose, protein, red or white blood cells, and crystals can be detected by the test. It helps in diagnosing infections, kidney diseases, liver diseases, and other metabolic disorders.


CUE is non-invasive, quick, and often part of routine health checkups. Accurate results depend on proper sample collection and timely processing by a qualified laboratory. In this episode of the Complete Urine Examination, we will cover what the test is, why and when it’s recommended, the key parameters it evaluates, how to interpret results, necessary precautions, common abnormalities detected, and how this simple test offers vital insights into kidney health, urinary tract infections (UTI), metabolic disorders, and more.


Join our PACE Hospitals Podcast episode with Dr A Kishore Kumar - Consultant Nephrologist and Kidney Transplant Physician at PACE Hospitals, Hitech City, Hyderabad, India, to explore the Complete Urine Examination (CUE).
