Urine Sediment Leukocytes

Sediment leukocytes are white blood cells counted under the microscope in spun-down urine. A few are normal; a higher number can point to inflammation or infection in the urinary tract.

Doctor's Assessment Included

Urine Sediment Leukocytes: what this test measures

This is the microscopic white-blood-cell count in your urine sediment, reported per microliter. Unlike the dipstick leukocyte screen, it is an actual cell count, and it is interpreted together with the urine culture and your symptoms.

Urine Sediment Leukocytes: lifestyle and this value

A clean-catch midstream sample and good hydration give the most reliable result. If the count is raised, your GP can advise whether a culture or treatment is needed.
