[Quantitative mineralogical analysis and structure of urinary stones in patients living in Ivanovo region].

This paper focuses on developing and implementing a method of quantitative mineralogical analysis of urinary stones based on powder diffraction data analysis using 4 Topas (Bruker) software. Mineralogical composition of 100 urinary stones from urolithiasis patients living in Ivanovo region was examined. More than 70% of stones consisted of calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) and calcium oxalate dihydrate (COD), and their mixtures with hydroxylapatite.
