What it measures

- Collection volume (sometimes) — The total amount of urine collected over a set time, if a 24-hour sample is used.
Preparation

Results and what they mean
Results are reported as a number that your clinician compares with a reference range. A single result may not show the full picture, so your doctor will interpret it along with your history, symptoms, and other tests. This information is general and not medical advice.
