Urolithiasis is one of the most frequently occurring diseases worldwide. Its management is related on investigation of concretion composition which helps to assess the current therapy.
Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometry gains significant importance because of its ability to determine concretion composition. Presented review shows the use of FTIR spectroscopy in detection of the very rare urinary stones including cyanoacrylate and pyrophosphate.
Infrared spectroscopy made possible to identify the nature of the concretions and helped in management of urolithiasis.
