Accurate and timely diagnosis is the key to successful treatment. It is difficult to imagine our lives without the ability to pass the examination. Indeed, different methods help in early detection of pathological process, to make an accurate diagnosis and begin treatment.
One of these studies is chromatotherapy. What it is, when it is running and are there any contraindications?
In contrast to cystoscopy, during which the cystoscope explores the mucous membrane of the bladder. In the course of cystochromoscopy possible to investigate not only the upper urinary tract, but both kidneys. The principle procedures based on the allocation of the colorant of the upper urinary tract.
The Indigo – it is the substance used for the procedure. Experts, a solution of this substance injected parenteral: either through the vein or intramuscularly. Thanks cystochromoscopy can obtain detailed information and to see the full picture of the functional activity of organs of the urinary system.
Do I need to prepare?
Preparation for the examination is quite simple: for one to two hours to drink a glass of plain water. The main goal is that during cystochromoscopy bladder was full, so even with a strong desire to urinate, is to have patience.
The procedure is performed using the device of Cytoscape
Chromatotherapy is carried out in stages, namely:
- cytoscope is introduced into the bladder through the urethra;
- in the vein injected a special solution;
- drink liquid;
- examination of the mucous membrane of the urinary system;

Feature of the procedure is that a physician first examine the direction that is presumably healthy, and then moves on to a possible pathological process. Why such a sequence? The fact that the solution will be faster to stand out from a healthy body, rather than from the affected.
During normal operation, the kidney staining solution usually stands out after a few minutes. With decreasing renal function time allocation will be extended, and the color will be weaker than normal.
After about twenty minutes, the solution removed by the kidneys.
Based on the degree of staining intensity is divided into three States:
- the normal function;
- reduced function;
- the lack of a feature.

- the evolution of the upper urinary tract;
- the General condition of the body;
- body temperature;
- the number of drunk liquid.
Analgesic agents can alter the dynamics of the studied organs, so to take money with the analgesic effect before chromolithography contraindicated. The specialist can infer the existence of certain problems in the organs at the time of the appearance of the colorant and coloring.

Still chromatotherapy as any diagnostic method, has a number of limitations, among which are:
- acute inflammation or obstruction of the urethra;
- renal or hepatic insufficiency;
- shock;
- nephrosis;
- collapse.
In violation of the procedure there may be complications, if the actions are performed by experienced specialist, no consequences should not be
So, homocystinemia is a modern method of diagnostic examination, giving full information on the state of the kidney and urinary tract. The technique allows fast and accurate diagnosis and then prescribe the right treatment.
