urinary tract infection Testing

UTI’s are one of the most commonly diagnosed illnesses and are becoming more difficult to accurately diagnose due to drug resistance complications.  Our UTI panel uses a molecular technique to identify urinary pathogens, identify resistance markers and provide antibiotic sensitivity results. 

UTI panel molecular testing helps decrease healthcare costs and also helps improve antibiotic stewardship programs and reduces patient exposure to unnecessary drugs.  You can expect more rapid detection of UTI pathogens and increased accuracy in identification UTI pathogens compared to traditional culture technology testing.
