METHODS OF DETERMINING URINARY CALCULI COMPOSITION

摘要

A method of detecting urinary calculi in a subject. Detecting urinary calculi includes first exposing the urine sample to at least one labeled binding probe that is specific to calcium/magnesium-based urinary calculi and second detecting urinary calculi bound to the at least one labeled binding probe. Methods for measuring, monitoring and/or determining subtype of urinary stone composition in a subject are also provided.
