urine analysis

Lab examines pee

Urine analysis is the laboratory examination of urine to detect health conditions—infections, kidney disease, diabetes, drug use.

A routine physical often includes one.

The two-word form is slightly more common than the single word *urinalysis*, which means the same thing.
