Background: Renal stones (nephrolithiasis) are a common urological condition resulting from
the crystallization of dietary minerals within the kidneys. Their composition, including calcium
oxalate, calcium phosphate, uric acid, and cystine, significantly influences treatment and
recurrence prevention. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, a semi-quantitative and
automated technique, offers an advanced method for precise stone composition analysis.
