Crystalluria results from oversaturation of urine with crystallogenic substances. However, oversaturation may occur as a result of in vivo and in vitro events. Therefore, care must be used not to overinterpret the significance of crystalluria. Evaluation of urine crystals may aid in (1) detection of disorders predisposing cats to urolith or matrix-crystalline urethral plug formation; (2) estimation of the mineral composition of uroliths or urethral plugs; and (3) evaluation of the effectiveness of medical protocols initiated to dissolve or prevent urolithiasis.
结晶尿是由尿液中结晶形成物质过度饱和所致。然而，体内和体外因素均可导致过度饱和。因此，必须谨慎，避免过度解读结晶尿的意义。尿液晶体评估有助于：（1）检测使猫易患尿路结石或基质结晶性尿道阻塞的疾病；（2）估计尿路结石或尿道阻塞的矿物质成分；（3）评估为溶解或预防尿石症而启动的医疗方案的有效性。
