How are Transitional Epithelial Cells Diagnosed in Medical Tests?
Transitional epithelial cells are often identified through urinalysis, a common diagnostic test in nursing. Urinalysis can detect the presence and number of these cells, which may indicate various conditions. An abnormal number of transitional epithelial cells in urine samples often necessitates further diagnostic tests, such as imaging studies or cystoscopy, to determine the underlying cause.
