Order Calcium, Urine TestThe Calcium, Urine Test measures the amount of calcium excreted in urine over a defined collection period. Because calcium balance depends on the interplay of dietary intake, kidney function, and hormones such as parathyroid hormone and vitamin D, a urine calcium measurement offers information that a blood calcium level alone cannot provide.
About Calcium, Urine Test in Gresham
This profile is used to evaluate how much calcium the kidneys are removing from the body.
Calcium is filtered by the kidneys and partly reabsorbed before urine leaves the body. When that balance shifts, urine calcium can rise or fall even while blood calcium remains within its reference range.
The test is typically ordered to investigate kidney stone formation, to monitor known parathyroid or kidney disorders, or to follow the effect of a treatment that alters calcium handling.
Results are reported as the total calcium excreted across the collection period, and they are interpreted alongside the collection volume, dietary habits, and other laboratory findings.
