Urine Cortisol Creatinine Ratio (UCC Ratio)

The urine cortisol creatinine (UCC) ratio compares the stress hormone cortisol with creatinine in urine. It mainly screens for Cushing's disease, where the body makes too much cortisol.

When your vet may advise it

  • Used to screen for Cushing's disease; a high result needs further tests, since stress and other illness can raise it too.

How to prepare

Urine collected at home, ideally the first of the morning, is usually preferred as stress can raise cortisol.

Before you book this test

Why this notice: so you know, before you book, how a test is done, what its limits are and who is responsible.

  • Where it is tested. Some tests are done wholly or partly by an independent partner laboratory. The lab tells you before booking if this test is sent out, and the report names the laboratory that did it.
  • What a result can and cannot tell you. No test is right every time. A normal result does not rule out every disease, and an abnormal result does not prove one. A registered veterinarian should read the report with the animal’s signs and history before any treatment is started, changed or stopped.
  • The sample. A sample that is clotted, too small, wrongly labelled, leaking or too old may be rejected or reported with a note, and the lab may ask for a fresh one.
  • Reporting time. Same day to 24 hours. Times are estimates, not guarantees, and the lab confirms the time when you book.
  • Emergencies. A booking or a pending report must not delay urgent care. If an animal has collapsed, struggles to breathe, has fits or bleeds heavily, call a veterinarian at once.
