Albumin Creatinine Ratio

A urine Albumin Creatinine Ratio Test is used to evaluate if a urine sample has an abnormal level of the protein albumin and creatinine in the body. If kidney disease is detected early with the Albumin Creatinine Ratio test procedure, proper therapy can be given and further complications can be prevented. Further, if your Albumin Creatinine Ratio values are slightly elevated, it should be tested annually or as directed by a physician as it may indicate an early-stage renal disease. The high Albumin Creatinine Ratio range suggests that the renal disease is severe. Your kidneys are healthy if your Albumin Creatinine Ratio results are in the normal range.
