ABSTRACT

UROGENITIAL is derived from the Greek words ouron, meaning urine, and the Latin word genitalis, pertaining to reproduction. This specialty includes a variety of clinical disorders, because it covers the entire urinary and reproductive systems. Although kidney disorders can be covered in their own nephrology specialty, they can also be included in the urogenital system. Several interesting clinical disorders can therefore be covered in this organ system. Certain diagnostic tests are essential for urinary disorders, including hematology and serum chemistry analysis, urinalysis, and various forms of diagnostic imaging, especially radiography and abdominal ultrasonography.
