54+ booked in last 3 daysOverview
Kidney stones are small, hard deposits that form in the kidneys and can cause intense pain when they pass through the urinary tract.
Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectroscopy is a powerful analytical technique that can be used to determine the chemical composition of a sample by measuring the absorption or transmission of infrared light. In the case of kidney stones, FTIR spectroscopy can be used to analyze the composition of the stone and identify the types of minerals that are present.
Some of the minerals that are commonly found in kidney stones include calcium oxalate, calcium phosphate, uric acid, and struvite. Knowing the composition of the stone can help doctors determine the best course of treatment, as different types of stones require different treatments.
