Overview
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of urethral cancer include abnormal cells in urine cytology and blood in urinalysis.
Laboratory findings
- Urine cytology : A laboratory test in which a sample of urine is checked under a microscope for abnormal cells.
- Urinalysis : A test to check the color of urine and its contents, such as sugar, protein, blood, and white blood cells. If white blood cells (a sign of infection) are found, a urine culture is usually done to find out what type of infection it is.
