Order UTI TestA urinary tract infection, or UTI, is one of the most common reasons people seek medical care.

Understanding what the panel measures and how results are reported can help you have a more informed conversation with your healthcare provider.
About UTI Test in Norco
A UTI panel evaluates a urine specimen for evidence of bacterial infection in the urinary tract.
The panel typically begins with a urinalysis, which assesses physical, chemical, and microscopic characteristics of the urine. Chemical testing may look for leukocyte esterase, an enzyme produced by white blood cells, and nitrites, which certain bacteria convert from dietary nitrates. Microscopic examination can reveal white blood cells, red blood cells, and bacteria in the sediment.
If the urinalysis suggests infection, a urine culture may be performed. In a culture, a small portion of the sample is placed on a medium that encourages bacterial growth. If bacteria grow, the laboratory identifies the species and may test its susceptibility to various antibiotics. This information helps clinicians choose an appropriate treatment.
Results are reported as individual findings rather than a single value. The urinalysis components appear with reference ranges or qualitative descriptors, while a culture report names any organism isolated and lists it as present in a certain quantity. Susceptibility results indicate which antibiotics the organism is likely to respond to. Turnaround time is typically one to three business days, depending on whether a culture is required.
