Spot Urine For Calcium /Creatinine Ratio
Also Known As:
Random Urine Ca/Cr ratio
Urinary Calcium/creatinine test
About This Test
The Spot Urine Calcium/Creatinine Ratio (Ca/Cr) test measures the amount of calcium excreted in urine relative to creatinine in a single random sample. It serves as a convenient and accurate alternative to 24-hour urine calcium estimation.
This test helps identify abnormal calcium excretion, which can indicate parathyroid disorders, vitamin D abnormalities, or kidney tubular dysfunction.

Yes — the spot urinary calcium/creatinine (Ca/Cr) ratio can detect early health problems, especially early kidney stone risk and calcium-metabolism disorders.
TAT Policy
The Turnaround Time (TAT) depends on the following factors:
- Registration date and time
- Type of scan or test
- Scan time or sample collection time
In uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to test complexity or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed of the estimated TAT at the time of registration.
