Differentiating Hematuria from other Diseases
Red discoloration of the urine can have various causes:
- Red blood cells
- Microscopic hematuria (small amounts of blood, can be seen only on urinalysis or light microscopy)
- Macroscopic hematuria (or "frank" or "gross") hematuria
- Hemoglobin (only the red pigment, not the red blood cells)
- Other pigments
- Porphyrins in porphyria
- Betanin, after eating beets
