Urinary Stone Composition Analyses Using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectrometry

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Infrared (IR) spectroscopy is a modern physical-chemical method suitable for the investigation of kidney stone composition.There may be various disorders or diseases underlying the formation of urinary stones.It is important to have information about urinary stone components in order to present stone-specific treatment, reveal the etiology of stone formation, prevent recurrence and provide individualized treatment.In the basic evaluation of stone disease, kidney stone analysis is recommended.Infrared spectroscopy is the most commonly used of these methods.Infrared spectroscopy allows us to find the qualitative composition of stones that have been surgically removed or spontaneously removed.Stone composition and structure can provide information about etiology due to the past conditions that led to the crystallization process.
