Epithelial Cells in Urine
Epithelial cells in urine are typically shed from the bladder and urethra. While small amounts are normal, higher levels can indicate infections, kidney disease, or other medical conditions. Routine urinalysis tests for epithelial cells in urine help in diagnosing underlying health issues and monitoring the urinary tract’s health.
