The panel is usually ordered as part of a health examination to detect a range of disorders, especially those that may affect the liver or kidneys 
Urinalysis, Complete - 
Dipstick urinalysis is important in accessing the chemical constituents in the urine and the relationship to various disease states. Microscopic examination helps to detect the presence of cells and other formed elements.
