Microscopical examination of urine rewards the careful observer with unique evidence of abnormal processes in the kidney and elsewhere in the urinary tract. This atlas addresses the clinician who wishes to use this technique to make provisional diagnoses.
Microscopic urinalysis was developed initially as an integral part of the physical examination of the patient. Its value lies in the fact that it is non-invasive, economical and frequently provides evidence of abnormalities before these are detectable by other means. Increasingly, however, the test has become separated from its clinical context and is frequently undertaken in the laboratories of one or another branch of pathology by scientists with minimal training and understanding. This atlas seeks to alter this trend by addressing the clinician who wishes to interpret his observations with a microscope in the context of the presenting problem in order to make a provisional diagnosis or to determine an appropriate line of further investigation. It may also inform the scientist who seeks understanding of the diagnostic implications of the laboratory findings. This book should be of interest to nephrologists and infectious disease physicians.
