What is uroscopy?
Uroscopy comes from the word “uroscopia,” meaning scientific examination of the urine.
It is derived from the Greek words ouron meaning urine and skopeo meaning to behold, contemplate, examine, or inspect.
Such analysis of the urine was historically termed uroscopy until the 17th century and is now called “urinalysis.”
