Abstract
Using the quantitative technique of spectral analysis, we have determined the elements entering into the composition of renal calculi. The characteristic features of the distribution of Fe, Mg, Pb, Si, Mn, Ca, Ti, Zn, Al, and Cu in renal calculi of oxalate, phosphate, urate, and mixed types are studied.
