# Chromium, Urine

> This test measures the amount of chromium in your urine. It is primarily used to check for recent exposure to this metal, which often occurs in specific industrial or manufacturing settings. The results help show whether you have absorbed unsafe levels of chromium that could lead to toxicity. However, this test cannot identify the exact source of the exposure or diagnose specific health damage on its own.
