Chemical Analysis Of A Stone's Makeup

Montana rates for HCPCS 82360

A stone that has formed in the body and then been passed or taken out is broken down in the laboratory using chemical methods, and the amounts of each stone-forming material in it are worked out. Stones from the urinary tract are the most common, but a stone from a salivary gland, the gallbladder or elsewhere can be analyzed the same way. What a stone is made of shapes the advice on diet, fluids and medicines meant to stop another one forming.
