Urinary microscopy is a diagnostic tool which is largely used by nephrologists. In the opinion of the authors the best results can be achieved when all the aspects concerning this test are properly taken into account. Thus, from the methodological point of view, proper patient guidance, proper urine collection and handling, adequate microscopic equipment, and knowledge of the factors which can influence the results are all necessary. All the elements of clinical importance have to be known, namely, erythrocytes (with their morphological subtypes), leukocytes, tubular cells, uroepithelial cells (both superficial and deep), lipids, casts, crystals, and microorganisms. Then, the urinary findings have to be interpreted and, whenever possible, also combined into urinary profiles (e.g., the nephritic sediment, the nephrotic sediment). This, combined with other laboratory tests, the pathologic findings, and the clinical data, allows for the definition and management of urinary tract diseases.
