Question 1 of 5
A patient reports severe flank pain. The urinalysis reveals the presence of calcium phosphate crystals. The nurse will anticipate an order for which diagnostic test?
Correct Answer: A

B) is used to examine the bladder and urethra, not the kidneys. Mid-stream urinalysis (
C) is a routine urine test and does not specifically diagnose kidney stones. Bladder scan (
D) is used to assess bladder volume, not kidney stones.
