German to English Medical Medical (general)
Hi all,

Translating some medical reports and am a bit confusing about this section on lab results. There are checkboxes about urine collection, including "K-Urin" and "MS-Urin". I know "K-Urin" is urine collected from a catheter, but what is "MS" in this context?
Proposed translations (English)
