Results from this test may inform on the prognosis and management of chronic kidney disease, especially at early stages.1
This test has been the gold standard for measuring urinary albumin excretion since 1987. It is also known as the immunoturbidimetric assay and has completely replaced the old urinary dipstick method.2
