Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Checking a urine sample for pH, specific gravity, the presence of protein and sugar are part of a Urinalysis (UA). IVP (intravenous pyelogram) is a test that uses X-ray and a contrast dye to visualize the urinary tract. SG (specific gravity) is a measure of the concentration of solutes in a urine sample. VCUG (voiding cystourethrogram) is a type of X-ray that examines the bladder and urethra during urination. KUB (kidneys, ureters, and bladder) is a type of X-ray that looks at the urinary and gastrointestinal tract.
