title: Infrared spectrometric analysis of urinary calculi.
abstract: The composition of urinary calculi was studied by means of infrared spectroscopy. Analysis of 150 calculi has shown that their infrared spectrum offers quick and reliable results and the method helps to plan the therapy. Organization of a central laboratory for calculus analysis is recommended.
